CHILE. 4 Reales, 1791/0-So DA. Santiago Mint. Charles IV. PCGS VF-35.
KM-38; Cal-850. A SCARCE and popular three-year transitional bust type struck with the bust of Charles III, but in the name of the Charles IV (Ordinal IV). This charming example offers a pleasing appearance with boldly struck, well-formed devices and light attractive mottled gray patina displaying a slight iridescent sheen that pops out when tilted. The surfaces are relatively smooth with only trivial marks or abrasions that would be expected from the designated grade mentioned for accuracy. This wholesome survivor is pleasant and wholly original looking, though not the finest known by any means it is certainly quite nice for the type.
