COLOMBIA. 8 Escudos, 1830-BOGOTA RS. Bogota Mint. PCGS MS-63 Gold Shield.
Restrepo-165.19; KM-82.1. Tied for second finest certified of the date with two other examples at either PCGS or NGC with only two finer(MS-64, 1 at each NGC & PCGS). A choice example of this highly popular gold type with weakly struck centers as usual but smooth, flashy fields and a delicately frosted obverse bust. A few stray hairlines here and there in the obverse and reverse fields hold it back from a higher grade. A fantastic representative of the type worth of a premium bid.
Estimate: $2000.00 - $3000.00
