ARGENTINA. Real, 1825 RA CA. La Rioja Mint. PCGS VF-20.
KM-17. The Krause catalog lists this particular date as "5 known," with this cataloger only able to find one other example of this type that has come to market in recent years. Some softness from strike appears at portions of the legends, with some wearing as well, though it provides a rich mint bloom and colorful toning interspersed throughout. A piece that is absent from nearly all collections, and as such, the TREMENDOUS RARITY makes it certain to attract much excitement.
Estimate: $1500 - $3000
