This specimen was lot 1289 in Sedwick Auction 37 (Winter Park, FL, May 2025), where it did not sell. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[Peru|PERU]], Lima, gold bust 1 escudo, Charles IV, 1793 IJ, large bust, NGC VF details / cleaned, ex-Almenara. Broad flan with full rims, nice red toning around details but also some encrustation on reverse, the bust a bit weak and with hairlines, minor lamination flaws in front of face, a distinctively oversized bust unique to this mint for this and the previous year, oddly singled out in Calicó only for this denomination. Pedigreed to the Almenara Collection." This type was struck 1792-1808 for king Charles IV. He succeeded Charles III in 1788, but as there were delays in getting punches for the new bust out to the Latin American mints, the old hubs were used with the new king's name thru 1791. Assayer IJ is recorded for 1787-1803.

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown.

''Specification:'' 3.38 g, .875 fine gold, .095 troy oz AGW.

''Catalog reference:'' [[Spanish and Spanish colonial coins listed by Cayón number|Cayón-limonite]], Cal-1085; Fr-43; KM-89.
