This specimen was lot 11010 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2018), where it sold for $3,600. The catalog description[1] noted, "COLOMBIA. 1701-V.A. 2 Escudos. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Philip V (1700-1746). Restrepo M79var. AU-50 (PCGS). 6.77 grams. An exemplary piece, with a bold 1701 date and nearly full [P]HILIPVS, followed by the V.A. assayer initials usually associated with this date. While CAROLVS is not present on this specimen, this is usually described as a posthumous issue of Carlos II. Bright yellow gold with good eye appeal, no sediment or damage, quite soft at centers of both sides but blessedly well struck at the peripheries. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins. Acquired from Kurt Spanier in New York, December 1981."
Fr-8, KM-14.2. 6.77 g, .917 fine gold, also -ARCE.
