VENEZUELA. Caracas. 1/4 Real (Quartilla), 1822. NGC AU-55.
KM-C-31; cf. Stohr-13a. Variety missing crossbar in denomination on the obverse, 8 fat rays, 16 short rays and 8 ball-tipped lines. A RARE variety that does not seem to appear in auction archives or listed by the brilliant numismatic author Tomas Stohr. A well struck example with light signs of handling and light even wear displaying a thin veneer of tone on the high points with luster in the protected areas. An interesting variety certain to be a real treat for the specialist destined for an advanced collector.
Estimate: $1500.00- $2000.00
