Republic gold 8 Escudos 1841 QUITO-MVA AU53 NGC, Quito mint, KM23.1. Large planchet size. Very rare, a popular variety with a larger flan and represented in pleasing Almost Uncirculated condition. Highpoint rub admittedly exists in line with the grade, yet the coin retains full detail to the devices--perhaps its most notable aspect of this offering is its wonderful toning, the peripheries positively beaming with vivid red further emphasized by the underlying reflective luster. A highly collected type boasting excellent eye appeal.
