COLOMBIA. 1794/3-JF Escudo. Popayán mint. Carlos IV (1788-1808). Restrepo 85.5. AU Detail — Harshly Cleaned (PCGS).Light yellow gold with some unnatural brightness but still reasonably decent visual appeal. The obverse die shows an interesting vertical die crack in the left field, and the O of CAROL is filled. Cleaning has left some hairlines and some granular texture under a glass, but the overdate remains bold and the visual appeal is still good.From William F. Steinberg, February 1973.
