Owner Comments:
I fell in love with this coin on first sight. Firstly, it is a very rare issue. Secondly, it is really scarce. At this time it is listed on Krause as "Rare" and unpriced as such. The details are all there. Very pretty. At the time of purchase (February 2019) NGC has this one at 30 and 1 at 50.
From the sale's catalogue: "MEXICO. 4 Reales, 1842-Go PJ. Guanajuato Mint. NGC VF-30. KM-375.4. Problem free for the grade with mottled olive to gray toning. A highly coveted issue from the "PJ" assayer, listed in the Standard Catalog of World Coins simply as RARE. Provenance: Ex: Richard Ponterio Collection".
