Central American Republic gold 2 Escudos 1828 CR-F MS62 NGC, San Jose mint, KM15, Fr-3. Mintage: 2,750. The underlying dark field toning contrasts beautifully with the bright-gold devices on this iconic issue. The pebbled surfaces limit the visual clarity, but this should not be confused with wear as this piece is noticeably free of significant handling. One of three Mint State examples at NGC and desirable to collectors as such.
Ex. Eliasberg Collection (American Numismatic Rarities, April 2005, Lot 1660); Colonel James W. Flanagan Collection (Stack's, March 1944, Lot 380)
