Ferdinand VII 8 Reales 1811 P-JF XF45 NGC, Popayan mint, KM71, Cal-1362, Elizondo-3, Restrepo-120.2, Calberto-943. The Ferdinand VII 8 Reales struck at Popayan is among the scarcest silver colonial bust 8 Reales types. 1811 is the first confirmed year of issue as the only known 1810 example is now believed to have been an 1813 issue with an altered date. A type offered at Heritage only twice previously and absent from even Norweb and Schuckmann, this example is the best of the bunch and tied for the top spot on the NGC census with the Millennia specimen. The strength of this piece is its relatively firm strike and scant signs of handling, particularly on the reverse coat-of-arms, which remains nearly intact. A mild pink hue softens the semi-lustrous, silvery surfaces. Specialists of Spanish colonials will want to watch this lot carefully as the next offering might not appear for several years. From the Mac and Rob Woodside Collection
