Description

BOLIVIA. Mint Error -- Double Struck, 2nd Strike 35% Off-Center -- 4 Soles, 1856-PTS FJ. Potosi Mint. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, EF Details.
KM-123.2. This interesting survivor is unlike many double struck errors that come to market in that it was not simply double struck, but was struck and rotated 180 degrees before being struck again. This resulted in nearly complete legends and devices, albeit more like a puzzle, inclusive of all the pertinent details. Close inspection reveals evidence of a past cleaning, now slightly subdued by light attractive tone with richer coloration in the protected areas. Despite its shortcomings this intriguing example is sure to see spirited bidding from advanced collectors looking to add depth to their numismatic holdings.
