Guatemala
Charles III 8 Reales 1780 NG-P VF Details (Surface Hairlines) NGC, Nueva Guatemala mint, KM36.2. A very attractive coin for the designation since the hairlines mentioned in the insert are well disguised under pleasant old toning and the extant detail present is still substantial. A very rare date with less than 10 confirmed examples, missing in the Ray Johnson collection and only represented by a significantly flawed and worn (described as "ugly and unappealing to all... Fine for wear" and not even deemed as worthy of plating in the auction catalog) in the Viceroy Amat group. An important opportunity for the specialist.From The Santa Maria Collection
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
