Bogota, Colombia, gold 2 escudos, 1829RS, rare, NGC AU 50, finest known, ex-Eldorado. Sed-4; Restrepo-163.9; KM-83. Bold strike with contrasting sediment around details, nice light toning all over, part of reverse rim weak (as made), finest-known example of an elusive, brief type, way finer than the only other NGC entry at VG and missing in the PCGS census (except for this very coin, now crossed over). NGC #5936656-008. Pedigreed to the Esmeralda Collection (stated on special label) and to the Eldorado Collection (Stack's Bowers auction of August 2018, lot 40377).
