Republic gold 8 Escudos 1868 Mo-CH MS65 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM383.9, Fr-64. What can truly be said about such a gem beyond what is so clearly implied by the grade? This wondrous selection's superb quality renders it the finest-graded example of the date seen by the grading services, and yet more impressively places it in an elite tier among the absolute best certified examples of the type as a whole, including all dates and mintmarks. The glassy golden fields of this jewel carry light with effortless grace in a manner and quality that will likely seem unfamiliar to even those well-accustomed to the issue, who themselves will attest to the normally bagmarked and heavily handled examples that represent the "norm" for the type. For those seeking the best of the series, here is your answer. Ex. Anastasia Collection
