Santiago, Chile, bust 8 escudos, Ferdinand VI, 1751J, from the Luz (1752), housed in a promotional wooden box with gold-plated silver replica ingot, limited edition #154/170.
KM-3.
About 12" x 10" x 2-1/2" altogether.
A gorgeous promotional package, housed in a heavy mahogany-wood box engraved with a ship and "The Treasures Of The River Plate" on top, certificates and plaques inside along with the coin and ingot (669 grams, a reproduction of lot #247 in the original Sotheby's auction of March 1993), the coin lustrous AU with scratches.

CT-133; KM-2.
13.5 grams.
Mint State with luster around letters, central weakness as usual, significant rim-bump on reverse, popular as the first year of gold coins struck at this mint.

 |
|
Lot# 50 |
 |
Santiago, Chile, bust 4 escudos, Charles IV transitional (bust of Charles III, ordinal IV), 1790/89DA, extremely rare.
CT-unlisted (cf. 276); KM-unlisted (cf. 41.1).
13.4 grams.
So rare as a type (and unique as an overdate) that only two examples have shown up at auction in the past century, the other one a 1789 with lamination defect (hence inferior to ours) originally offered by Spink in 1936 and later as the Norweb specimen in 1997. Probably 5 of the type are known in all. Unfortunately this is a case where KM took a single auction result and extrapolated prices in 4 grades, and then Calico just copied. For sure the type is rarer than the celebrated "rat nose" type of 1763-64. The present specimen is lustrous XF+-AU with slightly weak bust, no problems.
Estimate: $2,500-$3,750. |

Popayan, Colombia, 10 pesos, 1859/7, unlisted overdate.
Sed-unlisted (cf. 26); KM-unlisted (cf. 129.2).
16.2 grams.
The 1859/8 listed in the references is rare, but this coin shows a distinct upper-right point of a 7 underneath the 9, which is unlisted and presumably new, also with parts of the legend re-cut in the die, lustrous XF, no problems, good coin for the specialist.
Estimate: $1,250-$2,000.
(Note: this issue is listed as 1859/8/7 in Restrepo, as #235.2.)
