Popayan, Colombia, 1 decimo, 1864, encapsulated NGC AU 55, with WINGS silver sticker, finest known in NGC census. Beautifully rainbow toned and lustrous, well detailed (albeit slightly crude as usual), seldom the case for Popayan minors, which are downright rare in high grade like this. Likely the nicest we have traced of this two-year type in high fineness (0.900), the only specimen graded by NGC so far. Acquired from Alvaro Gonzalez, ca. 1973-1975.
