PHILIPPINES. 4 Quartos, 1835-MA F. PCGS VF-35 BN Gold Shield.
KM-15; Basso-46; Cal-Type 179 #713. Globes closely spaced. EXTREMELY RARE type in this state of preservation. Unusually well prepared planchet with minimal defects and a unusually bold strike leaving clear details. Bold complete legends and devices. Vastly superior to the other examples we were able to locate with far less in the way of planchet defects or striking deficiencies. Lovely smooth fields with rich patina. An example where the grade on the holder certainly does not reflect the overall quality. If not the finest example extent certainly one of the finest. A chance not to be missed as the opportunity to acquire such a tremendous highly sought after piece may not occur again for many years.
From the Ray Czahor Collection.
