PERU. South Peru. 2 Reales, 1837-CUZCO BA. Cuzco Mint. NGC MS-62.
KM-169.1. Surviving in an almost unheard of state of preservation, this nearly-choice minor presents a speckled amber-olive tone atop light gray surfaces that retain great luster. A one-year type featuring the ever-popular sunface design. Superior to the Orsini/Lissner specimen--an NGC AU-58--that realized a total of $1,680 in our 2021 NYINC auction (Lot # 22080).
Estimate: $1500 - $2500
