PHILIPPINES. Philippines - Mexico. 8 Reales, ND (ca. 1834-37). Manila Mint. Isabel II. NGC VF-35; C/S: XF Standard.
KM-Not listed; Basso-56; PNM#6-Not listed; PNM#16-291; PNM#21-VIII-106; Cacho-IX-CS-80; Gil-5-4-3-III; DP-Mo09. Type VI Countermark, crowned Y.II. within circle. Countermark applied to the obverse of a 1830-Mo JM Mexico Republic 8 Reales; Die style of 1824-47, normal date with standard eagle variety. We have only five examples documented with two different crown varieties (5-4-1-II[1] and 5-4-3-III[4]). The countermark is bold and clear with good definition of the fine details on a wholesome, nicely preserved host. The surfaces exhibit a few marks and abrasions, but nothing noteworthy, with wear primarily contained to the high-points and exposed areas. The minor earthen deposits amongst the devices lend to its originality.
From the Angelita and Benito Legarda Collection.
Estimate: $600 - $800
