Nueva Granada gold 10 Pesos 1857-Bogota, KM122.1, Fr-85. MS62 NGC. A few contact marks, but much luster remaining, and thus unusually attractive for this scarce type. This charming issue indicated its weight and fineness in lieu of the denomination. This did not hamper its circulation, and uncirculated examples are rare.From the collection of Donald E. Bently, sold for the benefit of the Bently Foundation Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $1200 in VF, $1750 in EF.
Estimate: 2500-3000 USD
