Attractive light silver with some minor scattered hairlines. Far finer than the grade indicated, but suffering from a die failure on the obverse that has caused most of the center to lose its detail. The Murias coin brought a surprising $5,175 in 2012, the highest price of any Carlos IV 1/2 Real in the collection, which included every date listed by Restrepo. Calicó ranks this date as tied for rarest in the short Bogotá Carlos IV 1/2 Real series. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.
