Ferdinand VI gold Cob 4 Escudos ND (1751-52) AU50 NGC, Santa Fe mint, KM27, Restrepo-type M96. Well preserved with little actual wear and attractive orange toning. Struck over a smallish flan as frequently seen so date is not apparent. The bold 4/8 denomination on the obverse and the style of the ribbons on the reverse allow to assign it to the 1751-1752 period per Restrepo's detailed study. A good representative of this very rare type, desirable despite the lack of a clear date.
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
