GUATEMALA. Central American Republic. 8 Reales, 1846/2-NG AE. Nueva Guatemala Mint. NGC MS-64.
KM-4. The overdated variety, also with "CREZCA/CRESCA". A superb example of this wildly popular Crown, with only the slightest strike weakness at the "2" on the reverse. The surfaces are flashy, with frosty peripheral lettering, all endowed with a strong russet obverse toning that appears much more gently on the reverse. One die adjustment mark is noted across the line of volcanos.
Estimate: $1500 - $2500
