Costa Rica
Republic gold 1/2 Onza 1850-JB AU58 NGC, San Jose mint, KM100. With plenty of central definition remaining, particularly on the native's finer details and reverse coat of arms. Closer study reveals a beautifully toned planchet, the color of amber, with only a few heavier marks noted throughout the fields. Wear appears to be very mild, and that, coupled with a strong strike, allows the viewer to truly appreciate the boldness of the raised illustrations. For the specialists of scarce Costa Rican gold, this specimen will immediately delight.
