Bogota, Colombia, 4 escudos, 1826JF, very rare. Sedwick-5; Restrepo-164; KM-86.. Problem-free VF with contrasting toning around details, minor lamination flaw on reverse. Frank Sedwick says (Gold Coinage of Gran Colombia, 1991): "Not only a one-year type but also the only 4 escudos of Colombia as a nation, and was probably of low mintage. Almost never is the piece seen in any but low grade." While hardly comparable in quality, it is interesting to note that the finest-known Eliasberg specimen in MS 64 sold for $42,550.
