CHILE, Santiago, bust 4 reales, Charles III, 1779/8 DA, extremely rare, NGC F 15 (Colección Val y Mexía Label), finest and only example in NGC census.
Very Rare. Mintage for the year 1778 = 15,000 and for the year 1779 = 10,000 pieces
Cal-unl (Type 93); KM-unl (34 for type). Deeply rainbow toned over worn but lustrous surfaces, somewhat crude (as made) at rims, but most important feature is the overdate, which shows a clear top angle of a 7 inside the 9 but also the curve of an 8 at bottom left (not mentioned on the label), unlisted in any case and possibly unique. Pedigreed to the Val y Mexía Collection.
