ECUADOR. 5 Francos, 1858-QUITO GJ. Quito Mint. NGC MS-63.
KM-39. A very handsome example of this single-year issue, presenting cartwheel luster and just the slightest layer of champagne toning. Not often encountered so alluring and charming, with NGC having graded just a small handful finer.

Designed by local Ecuadorian artist Emilia Rivadaneira--as marked with the small ER below the bust. Emilia was the sister of Manuel Rivadaneira, who received the contract for the first Ecuadorian Postage Stamp.

Estimate: $2000 - $2500
