GUATEMALA. 4 Reales, 1777-NG. Nueva Guatemala Mint; Assayer Pedro Sanchez de Guzman (P). Charles III. PCGS VF-20.
KM-35.2; Cal-807. This slightly circulated 4 Reales piece is among the earliest struck at Nueva Guatemala. With a strong strike and attractive light toning, this coin possesses eye appeal that far exceeds what its grade might suggest. The portrait preserves the king's facial features and the fine details of his hair, and the reverse crowned arms are pleasingly complete, without any of the typical strike weakness on the peripheries. Deeper toning in the protected areas around the devices helps the details pop that much more. A charming and problem-free example, certain to satisfy the next collector who acquires it.
