COLOMBIA. 1837-RS 8 Reales. Bogotá mint. Restrepo 193.1. MS-63 (PCGS).The only generally collectible date of this design type, the first 8 Reales issued in the name of the Republic of New Grenada. Swirling gem-quality cartwheel luster spins across brilliant surfaces. Well struck and nicely preserved, showing only trivial chatter across the fields. A popular world crown, rare in high grade and notable as an important one-year type, the unique 1838 notwithstanding.
