Ferdinand VII 4 Reales 1811 V-SG MS65 NGC, Valladolid mint, KM453.2. A conditional jewel with exceptional, steel-gray patina highlighted by an array of gold and magenta underlying iridescence. Both sides present pleasing illustrations, with the reverse showing the typical strike-softness in the shield, and despite being struck with rusted dies, the portrait of Ferdinand retains an attractive crispness. A veritable gem, and likely among the finest survivors of the type. Ex. D. Moore Collection
