SPAIN. 2 Excelentes, ND. Toledo Mint. Ferdinand & Isabella (1474-1504). NGC AU-58.Fr-130; Cal-Type 90#96; Cayon-2945. Prior to the conquest of South America, gold coinage issued in the Spanish mainland was minimal. The extensive gold issues produced during the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella give a direct testimony to the wealth Spain plundered from the New World and its inhabitants. Within the first decade of conquest thousands of kilos of gold were being shipped back to Spain. This massive influx of gold help create the rumor of "El Dorado", the fabled city of gold. Well struck with nearly full legends and good details. Lustrous, lightly toned and quite attractive.
