24.47 grams. Fully round, with choice smooth surfaces and excellent contrast against light silver gray toning. Nicely struck, with some doubling atop the obverse but crisp on the assayer, mintmark and date, whose digits are truncated at the top by the edge. The reverse is perfectly centered, with just enough room for the denomination at right. Softly struck in the upper left quadrant of the shield, otherwise complete. The roundness of the planchet and the slightly low weight are a bit disconcerting, but there are no file marks or evidence of other alteration, so if this coins shape was a post-mint effort it was done within the coins useful life and was followed by normal wear. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.<p>The Restrepo Plate Coin.
