    Very nice! image

    A tiny gold coin quite rare in higher grades.

    Was it struck in Spain or the Philippines???

    Philippines, in Manilla they melted down gold onzas from South America and converted these to gold Isabelinas. These were minted from 1861 - 1868.

    How does your grade? Can we see reverse?

    This one is graded XF45 by PCGS. I have a picture of the reverse but it's on my home computer. You're right, some of these dates are considered rare. I was glad to get the 1865 in any grade, currently looking for the 1866.
