Philip V gold Cob 2 Escudos ND (1717-46) MS62 NGC, KM17. Rather pleasing for the type with bright luster and a relative bold strike on a broad flan that displays a full cross. Some encrustation remains on the reverse. Based off the Restrepo study on cobs of this period, the present coin likely dates to the 1723-46 period, thus making the NGC attribution incorrect.
Estimate: 1300-1600 USD
