Description

Ferdinand VI gold 8 Escudos 1751 So-J MS64 NGC, Santiago mint, KM3, Cal-72, Onza-644. Watery golden brilliance flows across the surfaces of this exceptional example of the type, combining clear and boldly outlined detail with a degree of preservation that is undeniably on the precipice of gem. Only faint wisps of handling cap the assigned grade, with a clear reflectivity in the fields contributing to elevated visual appeal. Conditionally rare in this state of preservation, and one of the finest examples of the issue that most collectors could hope to locate.
