PHILIPPINES. 4 Quartos, 1835-MA F. Manilla Mint. Isabel II. NGC VF-20. KM-15; Basso-46; Cal-Type 179 #713. Quite <strong>RARE</strong> as a type, this example is far better than most seen, with an evenly applied strike and surfaces that have avoided cleaning or significant deodorization due to the humid environment these circulated in. For reference, we offered a PCGS-graded VF-35, which may be the finest of this issue that has survived, in our 2019 offering of the Ray Czahor Collection, which brought $19,200.
