Philip V gold Cob 8 Escudos 1721 L-M AU Details (Removed From Jewelry) NGC, Lima mint, KM38.2, Cal-2133, cf. Onza-273 (different reverse dies), cf. Oro Macuqino-273 (same). 25.65gm. A most intriguing representative from an already scarce date, and despite having existed within jewelry, will sure to pique the specialist of the Cob series. Close examination reveals a not only an unlisted die pairing, but a reverse die unknown altogether from this era, distinguished by the mint and assayer initials flanking the cross in a similar fashion to the well-documented issues of Ferdinand VI. A thrilling discovery, well struck and sharp, and lacking the usual doubling. Accompanied by the original collector envelope.
