A pretty, tiny new-world newp!

[EVillageProwler]

Bolivia 1807-PTS PJ 1/2 Real. Very pretty in hand, but also tiny. It's bigger than a sceat, but smaller than a typical broad flan Anglo-Saxon penny. A fellow forum member told he was worried that the coin might be too small for me, to which I responded flippantly that I got glasses recently. Well, the coin really is too small -- so I'll just have to enjoy it via its blow digital image.

 

Here is the description from the dealer's web site:

 

A fantastic, lustrous and beautifully toned example which would, in the opinion of this author, look right at home in a 65 holder.

Nice little coin EVP.

 

It looked nice in it's previous NGC plastic at MS64 also, sold on Heritage back in April. Too bad it lost it's provenance when it crossed to PCGS.

 

On a coin with that eye appeal, the number on the holder is of little import. (thumbs u

Thanks. Too bad I wasn't looking at these then. I really need to be a smarter buyer.
