Ecuador
Selections from the Eric P. Newman Collection of World Coins. Republic Real 1834 Quito-GJ, KM13, MS64 NGC. An unbelievable example of this normally, extremely crudely struck issue. The strike is absolutely amazing, with full, sharp legends and a sunface so sharp you can see every detail of the tiny face. No significant flaws are noted and the fully lustrous surfaces highlight a spray of light silvery-gray toning. The only example of this date certified in Mint State by NGC, and undoubtedly, one of the finest Ecuador 1 Reales of this type you will ever see. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $150 in VF, $250 in EF.
Estimate: 3000-4000 USD
