COLOMBIA, Popayán, ½ real, 1841 VU/RU, very rare, NGC F details / cleaned, finest and only example in NGC census, ex-Toulemonde. Restrepo-178.9; KM-96.2. Low-contrast toning (any cleaning done long ago) and some weak strike (especially the rims)yet with clear date, the V/R over-assayer a bit difficult to see (NGC missed it) but the only possibility for VU according to the Restrepo reference, which says only five are known. Pedigreed to the Gregorio Toulemonde Collection (stated on label).
