Description

MEXICO. Sombrerete de Vargas. War of Independence. 8 Reales, 1811. Ferdinand VII. PCGS EF-40.
KM-177; Cal-1426; Ramirez-S8.1.2A. Struck type. Variety with small "VARGAS". This exceptional royalist crown delivers crisp detail with impressive clarity, yielding a rare view of the denomination, date, a full "SOMBRERETE", and bold S-between-pillars mintmarks. Though heavily adjusted, the surfaces are free of distracting corrosion or cleaning, instead showing generous originality along with an elegant charcoal contrast. An ideal exemplar of this RARE type, and one which is certain to excite discerning collectors.
Ex: Ponterio.

Estimate: $1000.00- $2000.00
