BOLIVIA. 1/2 Real, 1790-PTS PR. Potosi Mint. Charles IV. PCGS MS-61.
KM-60; Cal-654. This 1/2 Real is well-struck and stunningly original. The portrait and crowned arms are impressively detailed, especially rendered at this liliputian scale. The surfaces are quite clean, with only a few small hits in the fields as expected from this grade. Deep toning with smoky grays, burnt orange, and flashes of iridescent blue give the piece added visual interest. To view all items from the Pat Johnson Collection, click here.
