PHILIPPINES. Philippines - Mexico. 8 Reales, ND (ca. 1834-37). Manila Mint. Isabel II. NGC VF-20; C/S: VF Standard.
KM-Not listed; Basso-56; PNM#6-Not listed; PNM#16-Not listed; PNM#21-Not listed; Cacho-Not listed; Gil-5-4-3-III; DP-Ga12. Type VI Countermark, crowned Y.II. within circle. Countermark applied to the obverse of a 1834/2-Ga FS Mexico Republic 8 Reales; Die style of 1825-45. This final example of a Guadalajara mint host from the Legarda collection is the only one we have recorded and is the second to last date that we have documented with the last date being an 1835, of which we have only one recorded. The countermark is bold with good definition of the fine details on a moderately worn host. The surfaces are smooth with minor nicks and abrasions, as would be expected from its state of preservation displaying mottled light gray to slate patina with a light golden sheen.
From the Angelita and Benito Legarda Collection.
Estimate: $600 - $800
