Lima, Peru, 50 centavos, 1858YB, seated Liberty, short hair, encapsulated NGC MS 65, finest known in NGC census. KM-179.1. 11.9 grams. Choice light rainbow toning on lustrous surfaces, very pretty, the better of just two graded by NGC, from a two-year type in transition from Spanish denominations (reales) to decimal system (soles) but interestingly the same size and weight as the previous 50 centimos (previous lot). NGC #2713777-013. Acquired through Bill Christensen in 1973 and reportedly from an Eastern European bank collection known to have contained specimens from the Fonrobert collection.
