COLOMBIA. Nueva Granada. 16 Pesos, 1846-POPAYAN UE. Popayan Mint. Republic. NGC AU-58.Fr-75; KM-94.2. A delightfully impressive example, offering a good deal of brilliance and reflectivity remaining, while exhibiting just a hint of light handling as evident by its near Mint State designation. An inconsequential rim nick near the bottom of the reverse is mentioned merely for completeness.Ex: Eliasberg Collection (American Numismatic Rarities, 4/2005) Lot # 1606.Ex: John H. Clapp Collection.
