Lot 3697
Chile. 8 Reales, 1758 So-J (Santiago). Eliz-8; WR-1; KM-5. 26.97 grams. Ferdinand VI, 1746-1759. Pillar coinage. Crowned Bourbon arms. Reverse: Crowned globes flanked by crowned and bannered pillars, over water. Bold, even strike, with lustrous devices on reflective to proof-like fields. Splendid original surfaces and mint luster under light golden to iridescent toning. Extremely Rare. Considered the finest known specimen.

The famous "Santiago Pillar Dollar." It remains one of the most sought after and prized of all Latin American coinage. It is also the only Latin American crown to actually spell out the whole name of Ferdinandus, the king. Examples coming to market remain excessively elusive; one being Superior's Auction, December 1-2, 1990 (NY), lot 551, an eye appealing Very Fine, realized $44,000. Minted from 1751-1758, less than 10 examples are known of all dates. NGC graded AU-58.

Pillar Dollars were minted at various mints throughout the Americas. For those collectors trying to find a Pillar Dollar from each mint, Santiago is a major stumbling block. The Spanish colony of Chile was somewhat a forgotten stepchild, due to its relative inaccessability. Travelling overland was through harsh deserts, and travelling by sea required the long and dangerous voyage around Cape Horn.
Estimated Value $50,000 - 60,000.
Illustrated in Money of the World, coin 153. Ex Millennia, Lot 984.

Reverse: Crowned globes flanked by crowned and bannered pillars, over water. Bold, even strike, with excellent detail at globes and shield. Choice original surfaces, with residual luster, under medium gray toning. Extremely Rare. One the finest known. NGC graded EF-45.
Estimated Value $35,000 - 40,000.

Chile. 8 Reales, 1787 So-D.A. (Santiago). Eliz-36; WR-3; KM-31. 26.90 grams. Charles III, 1759-1788. Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Charles III right. Reverse: Reverse: Crowned Bourbon arms, flanked by bannered pillars. The strike choice, with virtually complete centers. Devices lustrous and glossy, on reflective fields. Very Rare, even more so in this state of preservation. The finest known specimen. NGC graded AU-58.

The mintage figures for colonial 8 Reales in Chile were far lower than most of the other Spanish colonies. Far less trade was being conducted by the Spanish. This makes this type very scarce.
Estimated Value $15,000 - 17,000.
A nearly comparable example, in AU, realized $12,000 in a Ponterio sale in January of 1991; Ex-Millennia Sale, Lot 990.

The first crown of Ecuador. One of the finest known examples. NGC graded MS-64.

Ecuador is also in possession of the Galapagos Islands, 600 miles west of the mainland. Here is probably the best environment to study and observe natural animal species in their own, relatively undisturbed, environment. From giant tortoises to boobie birds, to marine iguanas, the experience of being an amateur naturalist is unforgettable. It was here that Charles Darwin spent much of his time studying and organizing his ideas on "The Origin of Species".
Estimated Value $17,500 - 20,000.
