Popayan, Colombia, proof silver pattern for 1848 (2 pesos), encapsulated NGC PF-64 CAMEO, very rare. Sedwick-unlisted. Restrepo-p. 189. KM-Pn15. Pristine gem with lustrous fields and hint of toning around details, in fact the only specimen graded by NGC, valued in KM at $5400. Note that it bears the design of Sedwick-11 of Bogota but with mint clearly indicated as Popayan, also with flowers instead of caduceuses to right and left (a feature of Sedwick-22 of 1859-60). A cute little "pre-series" test piece. Dr. Frank Sedwick collection of Colombian Republic gold coins
