This specimen was lot 11114 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2018), where it sold for $660. The catalog description[1] noted, "COLOMBIA. 1657 1/2 Real. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Philip IV (1621-1665). EF-40 (PCGS). Another very rare example with a complete date, one that happens to be unlisted by Restrepo. Frosty medium gray with attractive blue toning and superb visual appeal. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins. From a hoard discovered by Clyde Hubbard in Medellín in the 1950s and subsequently published by Robert I. Nesmith. Plated in Nesmith's "A Hoard of the First Silver Coins of Nuevo Reino de Granada (Colombia)," 1958, coin #6b, illustrated on plate XXX and in a line drawing on p. 523." Restrepo lists this type for 1627-65 with assayer Ramos operating 1642-65. Known dates include 1652-53, 1656, 1662 and 1665. Others may exist but have not come to light.
