SPAIN. 8 Escudos, 1717-S M. Seville Mint. Philip V. NGC MS-63.
Fr-247; KM-260; Cal-2289. A beautiful and visually stark 8 Escudos that stands alone atop the NGC Census, far and away clearing the next best example, a mere AU-58. Possession some common strike weakness on the uppermost portions of the design, this example nonetheless gives a brilliant and nearly as mad appeal, with rich glowing luster in the fields throughout. Examples of this caliber of any date from this series seldom trade, and we expect fierce and intense competition for this specimen.

Estimate: $8000.00- $12000.00
