Peru
Republic 8 Reales 1825 LM-JM MS63 NGC, Lima mint, KM142.1, WR-14, Elizondo-100. As boldly struck as this series comes with an atypical level of detail imbued upon a smooth, slate-gray planchet and decorated in an allover, subtle lavender and cobalt patina muting lightly reflective, glossy fields. The current offering is the sole finest certified by either major grading service and thus will be of substantial interest to collectors of these early Peruvian Republic crowns.
