Central American Republic gold 8 Escudos 1833 CR-F AU55 NGC, San Jose mint, KM17. Lightly circulated in line with the grade, the handling in no way preventing due appreciation of the immensely bold strike (particularly on the obverse); luster dances under a layer of tone at the peripheries and brightens the visual effect. Largely colored a butter yellow, with suggestions of honey in the margins. The last AU example of this type we handled was graded AU Details (Edge Filing) NGC, yet still went on to realize $10,000 hammer at our April 2016 sale. We do not doubt that the superior grade this piece boasts will bring it an even stronger bidding session.
