Watch List notes:

Potosi, Bolivia, gold 1 scudo (medallic coinage), 1839, Constitution, very rare (two known), NGC MS 62, finest known in NGC census, ex-Whittier.Burnett-15; Fonrobert-9522.17.8 mm, 3.4 grams.Obverse with palm tree inside legend POTOSI ALA CONSTITUCION DEL ANO 1839 .; reverse with angel flying right holding the open-book Constitution and blowing the word LIBER / TAD from horn to right above cornucopia, legend REPUBLICA BOLIVIANA to left; diagonally reeded edge. Choice bold strike with ample luster, faint surface hairlines, by far the rarer of just two gold monetary medals issued in 1839 (the other with phoenix / standing angel), in fact the first gold monetary medals struck under the Republic. Reportedly only two exist of this type with palm tree / flying angel, the other being a slightly inferior AU58 with long pedigree (Eliasberg-Clapp-Newcomer-Jenks, sold in our Auction 26 in 2019).Pedigreed to the Whittier Collection of Bolivian Monetary Medals.
