Lot 1454 VENEZUELA (or CUBA), Maracaibo, copper 2/4 real, Ferdinand VII, (ca. 1813), very rare, NGC AU 58 BN,

VENEZUELA (or CUBA), Maracaibo, copper 2/4 real, Ferdinand VII, (ca. 1813), very rare, NGC AU 58 BN, finest known in NGC census. KM-C2; Cal-103. Bold and evenly struck full crowned arms with lions and castles transposed, also full 2/4 on other side, all well centered with nearly full rims, nice copper color with dark toning around details. Based on contemporary documentation, this type (which was also previously attributed to Santo Domingo) was convincingly re-attributed to Cuba by Luis Ponte at the Cartagena MMXXI conference but for now is still found under Maracaibo in references and at NGC.
