Costa Rica
Central American Republic gold Escudo 1849 CR-JB AU Details (Holed, Edge Filed) NGC, San Jose mint, KM14, Stickney-C100. An example that likely saw prior use in jewelry, though with much of the original detail remaining. Still a reasonably challenging date, and one seldom found without a later, Type VII, countermark.
