Guatemala, 2 reales, sun-over-mountains countermark (Type II, 1839) on obverse of a Lima, Peru, 2 reales, 1833/2/1 MM (unique), with El Salvador zigzag countermark (1835), very rare, NGC VG 10, c/s VF standard, ex-O'Brien. cf KM-82. Like the previous lot, this coin is unusual for having circulated in three different countries (Peru, then El Salvador, then Guatemala), the countermarks both full and well detailed on the obverse of a well-toned host (reverse struck slightly off-center), first of this combination we have seen in this denomination (not listed in KM, although NGC census does list one other at VF), clear 3/2/1 overdate that is unlisted and presumably unique (not noted by NGC). Pedigreed to the John O'Brien Collection (stated on label) and with his envelope.
