Colombia: Estados Unidos gold 20 Pesos 1875-BOGOTA MS63 NGC,...

Description

Estados Unidos gold 20 Pesos 1875-BOGOTA MS63 NGC, Bogota mint, KM142.1. Mintage: 1,696. A truly standout representative of the type. This example represents the first Mint State offering of the "Bogota" 20 Pesos type to be sold by Heritage, an issue normally seen in the AU range when found in "better" condition but very rarely venturing into uncirculated territory. Accordingly, a choice-certified example is certainly nothing to overlook, particularly when so expressive as this specimen, vibrant with golden mint luster, well-struck, and minimally handled. It is of no surprise, then, that this gleaming offering ranks as the finest certified example seen by NGC to-date. We note that an example graded MS60 in Goldberg's Millenia Auction hammered for $5,250 in 2008, providing an indication of the value that can be placed on a firmly choice selection such as this, hailing from a type widely revered for not only its rarity but also its beauty and superior die work.
