Brightly lustrous and boldly frosty, a spectacular example. The surfaces are bright yellow gold, as fresh as when struck, with just a few hints of rosy toning. Some very light chatter is seen on the obverse, but the reverse is easily two grades finer. Both sides are well struck and beautiful, and the overdate is easily seen under modest magnification. A stellar example of the issue, off the market for more than 35 years. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.<p>From Christies Geneva sale of the Kurt Homme Collection, November 25-26, 1981, lot 871.
