COLOMBIA. 8 Escudos, 1790-P SF. Popayan Mint. Charles IV (1788-1808). NGC AU-55.
Fr-44; KM-53.2; Restrepo-Type 96 # 4. A SCARCE three year transitional issue featuring the bust of Charles III, but the ordinal of the new king, Charles IV, in the legends. A near-perfect example for the grade with a nice strike, limited marks that attract the eye and extremely charming orange gold color that deepens toward the edges. With such lovely eye appeal, sure to be a welcome addition to the next collection it enters.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
