VENEZUELA. Barinas. Caujaral. Chipi-Chipi Cob Real, "146" (ca. 1800). NGC VF Details--Environmental Damage.
1.36 gms. KM-2. Imitation of a Bolivian 1 Real cob, derisively known as a "Chipi-Chipi". Ideally centered on the obverse with a bold date and bright silvery coloration over most of the raised surfaces. Seemingly somewhat harshly assessed by NGC, as some minor encrustation does appear within the recesses, but no instance, in our eyes, crosses the line into "environmental damage".
Estimate: $500.00- $700.00
