A spectacular Mint State example of this popular type. Frosty light yellow gold with exceptional detail and aesthetic appeal. Fully lustrous on both sides, well struck, and retaining some flashy reflectivity inside the raised rims. The widely scattered and truly trivial hairlines should not be conflated with the raised lines, left over from the finishing of the dies. The only flaw is a single subtle scratch to the lower right of the reverse sunface. Finer than the very nice AU-58 (NGC) Eliasberg coin that sold for $4,140. An ideal high grade type coin. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.<p>From Stacks sale of the Alfred R. Globus Collection of Gold Coins of the World, October 1972, lot 871.
