Description

Estados Unidos gold 20 Pesos 1872-POPAYAN MS63+ NGC, Popayan mint, KM142.3, Fr-100, Restrepo-339.8. The dies used to strike this Popayan example were basically in disrepair by that point and the quality of the strike and surfaces reflect that but the steps taken to preserve this piece since that point have been stellar. This Choice specimen looks as good as it could possibly look given the limitations at this branch mint, the luster being particularly well-preserved; the decadently frosted, honey-gold surfaces brimming with life. Among the finest of the date with certified status, representatives of this famously weighty South American gold issue at such lofty technical assignments are both elusive and highly collectible.
