This specimen was lot 1729 in Stephen Album sale 41 (Santa Rosa, CA, September 2021), where it sold for $540. The catalog description[1] noted, "COLOMBIA: 1 centavo, 1886, pattern, ANACS graded PF64 RB, RR. Incorrectly identified as KM-Pn24 on the slab. It was Pn21 in the old Krause editions, now Pn70." The design of this copper pattern strongly resembles the copper-nickel 2½ and five centavos struck by the Scoville mint (KM 190 and 183) and was likely struck there as well. However, this denomination was never ordered into production and no one centavo coins were struck until 1918.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: copper.
Catalog reference: KM-Pn70.
