PHILIPPINES. Philippines - Peru. 8 Reales, ND (ca. 1834-37). Manila Mint. Isabel II. NGC VF Details--Scratched, Bent; C/S: XF Standard.
KM-138.4; Basso-56; PNM#6-180; PNM#16-377; PNM#21-VIII-170; Cacho-IX-CS-020; Gil-5-4-1-II. Type VI Countermark, crowned Y.II. within circle. Countermark applied to the obverse of a 1834-CUZCO BoAr Peru Republic 8 Reales. A somewhat SCARCE host date from this mint, we have only five examples recorded with three different crown variants. The countermark is uneven with a portion of the crown weak on a host that is decent for wear with light mottled gray tone and areas of richer coloration. Upon closer inspection several scratches are noticed on the obverse and a flat contact mark on the reverse, that caused the planchet to bow, accounts for the details designation.

From the Angelita and Benito Legarda Collection.

Estimate: $200 - $300
