COSTA RICA. Escudo, ND (1849-57). San Jose Mint. NGC EF-45.
Fr-4a; KM-84. A "lion" countermark (Type VI) on a Costa Rica (Central American Republic) Ecudo, 1847-CR JB. The countermark was applied with equal pressure on both sides, hence both show almost complete detail. The host is sharply struck and lightly toned, overall pleasing for the type.
From the Steve Studer Collection.
Estimate: $200.00- $300.00
