Comments: Obverse features head of Antonio José de Sucre. Reverse features ship in flag draped arms. This type was minted in 1943 and 1944. A similar type was minted in the late 1800s as a 1 Sucre. I have been looking for one of these for a while. Not a real expensive coin but they don't come up certified very often. Catalog value in BU is $22.20, I paid slightly more for this example.
