ECUADOR. Sucre, 1888-HEATON. Heaton Mint. NGC PROOF-66 Cameo.
KM-53.1. Seppa/Anderson-Not Listed; CARR-206. An excessively rare proof striking, the 2002 UBS catalog lists this as one of two examples known, and Krause does not even record a proof striking of this type. Once part of the Norweb collection, this piece has been well maintained by its prior owners. Beautiful fields present evidence of die polishing, and the sharply struck devices host some mottled copper, mauve, and electric blue toning. A fantastic piece, this example may well be the highest summit of Sucre-era Ecuadorian coinage ever produced.
Ex: UBS (9/2002) Lot #4598.
