COLOMBIA, Cartagena, copper "imitation cob" 2 reales, fantasy date "100" (ca. 1813), struck over a Cartagena 2 reales 1813, rare, "top pop." Restrepo-118.1; Cal-unl; KM-unl. 5.42 grams. Off-center overstrike with traces of the host visible, including a clear 181 and weak but certain final digit 3 of the date on the cross side (lions and castles transposed as usual), dark and a bit unevenly struck but choice in terms of grade (formerly NGC AU 55 BN, with tag 4332661-011 included, just one finer in the census at AU 58), the normal fantasy date 800 rendered here as "100" (possibly due to double-striking), a potentially unique variety of a rare type in choice grade. Pedigreed to our Auction 30 (November 2021), lot 928.
