Guatemala, gold bust 4 escudos, Charles IV, 1797 M, very rare, ex-Rudman. JP-4E36; KM-57; Cal-1448; Fr-19. VF with splashes of attractive red toning but crudely plugged at bottom (effacing the date's middle digits), probably done long ago to restore the coin to proper weight more than to fool collectors, in any case among only eight to ten known, none of which have appeared at auction in recent decades. Pedigreed to the Isaac Rudman Numismatic Cabinet, with his original numbered cardboard holder.
