KM-135.2. Counterstamped on a Colombia 1882 Medellin 5 Decimos. A RARE variety without "CB" initials below the lion. A charming example of this countermarked type. Slightly circulated but retaining plenty of detail, this piece is made more appealing by its lovely light toning with intermingling hues or yellow, orange, and purple.
