Spain
Isabel II gold 80 Reales 1836 B-PS MS64 PCGS, Barcelona mint, KM577.1, Cal-699 (prev. Cal-50). Incredibly scarce at this tier of preservation, this sharply struck example preserves its full, crisp detail, embedded upon surfaces that contain an astounding degree of reflectivity. This treasured, rarer date is notably the last containing DIOS (God) as the final word of the obverse legend, as the subsequent year saw its replacement with the word CONSTITUCION (constitution) in recognition of the limitations on royal power introduced by the Spanish Constitution of 1837. The present specimen is the only example of its issue currently certified by PCGS.
