Cuzco, Peru (Republic of South Peru), gold 1 escudo, 1838 MS, very rare, NGC MS 63+, ex-Garrett, ex-Goodman. KM-174; Fr-93. A spectacular piece, its artistic design limited to a sunface with five stars as from the newer REPUB. SUD PERUANA that added the Litoral Department (Tacna) to the previous four (see previous lot for comparison), with super-sharp rims and details all over, the fields thoroughly lustrous and nearly devoid of marks or hairlines, in fact second finest in the NGC census by a barely higher MS 64, with a stellar multiple pedigree. Pedigreed to the John Work Garrett Collection (Bank Leu / Numismatic Fine Arts auction of May 1984, lot 1333) and to the Irving Goodman Collection (Superior auction of June 1996, lot 1415), both stated on the label.
