Charles III gold 4 Escudos 1778 Mo-FF XF45 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM142.2, Cal-335. Sharply detailed and choice for the designation, with attractive orange-gold hues and partially lustrous surfaces, while the present contact marks are as expected. An excessively rare date, unconfirmed in Burzio, and absent from the Eliasberg substantial partial date run. More significantly, it it also missing in the Banco de Mexico collection and in the Museo Soumaya in Mexico (the core of which was the Licio Lagos collection). The finer of only two pieces known to the cataloguer, and an opportunity that is unlikely to repeat itself in the following years.From The Rudman Collection of Mexican Coins
Estimate: 4000-6000 USD
