Owner Comments:
Of all the coins on the sale, this one was the one I really wanted to get. Nicely toned, and the obverse has golden tones that really make the eagle look very pretty. It is in great condition and while I will not descend to argue it was undergraded, I believe deserved a better number IMO. Full Libertad and all details very well preserved. At the time of purchase (February 2019) this is the only one in the NGC census, so another Top Pop.
From the sale's catalogue: "MEXICO. Real, 1829-Go MJ. Guanajuato Mint. NGC AU-50.
KM-372.6. Large Eagle variety. Nicely struck with some luster and a hint of iridescence in the toning.
Provenance: Ex: Richard Ponterio Collection".
