PHILIPPINES. Philippines - Bolivia. 8 Reales, ND (ca. 1834-37). Manila Mint. Isabel II. NGC FINE-15; C/S: XF Strong.
KM-100; Basso-56; PNM#6-194; PNM#16-186; PNM#21-VIII-18; Cacho-IX-CS-099; Gil-5-4-2-II. Type VI Countermark, crowned Y.II. within circle. Countermark applied to the obverse of a 1834-PTS LM Bolivia Republic 8 Soles. One of the more abundant late dates. Our records show that we have more than 25 examples documented for all Y.II. crown varieties (5-4-3-III[5], 5-4-1-II[18] and 5-3-1[2]). The countermark is deeply applied with bold details on a moderately worn host coin that displays attractive rich mottled gray patina with highlights of iridescent hues amongst the devices that pop out when tilted in the light. A nice wholesome survivor of the type with a decent look.

From the Angelita and Benito Legarda Collection.

Estimate: $200 - $300
