[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 167423, member: 669"]Verrrrrry nice. :thumb: Depending on how much (if any) luster is visible, I think you have at least an AU58, and possibly up to an MS64' which would indicate a catalog value somewhere around the $125 Krause gives for an uncirculated example of Y#32. As indicated on the coin itself, it was struck in .900 gold and at a weight of 6.4516g it has an AGW of .1867, for a current bullion value in the $116 range. At current gold prices I suspect that the Krause values are on the low side, but my only South American coins are in my OFEC set, so I am extremely ignorant of current pricing. If I'm reading the notes in Krause correctly, you have a Type 1, with the torch privy mark of the Paris Mint being well below the bust truncation.
