A remarkable duplicate, attesting to the depth and importance of this collection. The surfaces are wholly natural and lustrous in appearance, with excellent deep yellow gold toning and only trivial hairlines and light marks scattered across both sides. The only visible evidence of a mount shows on the rim atop the reverse. A very attractive specimen of this highly elusive issue. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins.<p>Received in trade from the Bogotá mint in exchange for an 1853 16 Pesos, June 1972.
