MEXICO. 8 Reales, 1738-Mo MF. Mexico City Mint. Philip V (1700-46). PCGS AU-58 Gold Shield.

KM-103; FC-10a; EL-15; Cal-type-147#783; Gilboy-M-8-10. Superb quality for this early Pillar type, possessing a bold strike and strong luster on both sides, with the addition of gorgeous tone in gold, mauve and finally blue shade at the edges. Regardless of grade, one of the most visually capturing 8 Reales of Philip V that we have seen in quite some time.
