PHILIPPINES. Philippines - Peru. 8 Reales, ND (ca. 1832-34). Manila Mint. Ferdinand VII. NGC VF-35; C/S: XF Standard.
KM-84; Basso-55; PNM#6-69; PNM#16-158; PNM#21-VI-120; Cacho-VIII-CS-015; Gil-5-4-1-C. Type V Countermark, crowned F.7.0 within circular indent. Countermark applied to the obverse of a 1831-CUZCO G Peru Republic 8 Reales. One of the more abundant dates from this popular mint. The late dates (1830-34) appear to be more available than one would expect. Our records indicate 23 examples for all dates bearing the F.7.0 5-4-1-C crown variety. For this date we have eight documented. The countermark is deeply impressed with good definition of the fine details applied to a wholesome moderately worn and attractive host. The surfaces displaying a rich mottled light gray to slate patina with a slight golden hue that pops out when tilted in the light adding to its pleasing appearance.

From the Angelita and Benito Legarda Collection.

Estimate: $400 - $600
