AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

ECUADOR. Birmingham. 1/2 Decimo. 1915.

- Value: 1/2 Decimo.
- Year: 1915.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: REPUBLICA DEL ECUADOR · 1915. Reverse: EL PODER EN LA CONSTITUCION · 1/2 DECIMO.
- Grade: MS66 (NGC).

Silver half decimo coin minted at the Birmingham mint for the Republic of Ecuador, with a profile portrait of an allegorical female figure on the obverse, executed in a classical and elegant style, surrounded by the national legend and the date. The reverse presents the face value within an ornamental crown, accompanied by the republican motto “EL PODER EN LA CONSTITUCION,” of strong institutional and political significance for the era. The specimen stands out for its outstanding state of preservation, with fully defined reliefs, intense satin shine and very clean fields, barely interrupted by minimal microscopic marks in keeping with the MS66 grade. The surface maintains an attractive uniform silver appearance and great visual freshness, representing an excellent example of early 20th-century Ecuadorian mintings made in England.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
