CHILE. 8 Reales, 1800-So AJ. Santiago Mint. Charles IV. NGC AU-55.
KM-51; FC-40a; EL-52; Cal-Type-86 # 748. Mintage: 184,000. A beautiful example of this VERY SCARCE date, which possesses sporadic green, russet and mauve tone over the surfaces with bright underlying gleam. A few minor instances of handling, as well as a single planchet adjustment that runs through Charles IV's clothing contribute to the grade, but their significance in the overall eye-appeal is relatively minor.
From the Santa Fe Collection.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
