MEXICO. Charles IV Silver Campeche Proclamation Medal, 1790. NGC AU-58.
Grove-C-42. Oblique edge. Obverse: Crowned coat-of-arms with palm branches on the sides, legend around; Reverse: Five-line inscription with shining star above. Extremely vibrant, this lightly handled example displays near-prooflike fields with instances of copper-russet tone at the edges. A VERY RARE type, and considering that it's struck on an 8 Reales-sized module, an item that is sure to attract attention from coin and medal collectors alike.
From the Barquera Collection.
Estimate: $1500 - $3000
