Charles III gold 4 Escudos 1781 Mo-FF AU55 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM142.2, Cal-338. A choice coin for the designation, with essentially full mint luster, sharp details, fewer than the expected handling marks and thus superb eye appeal. One of the finest seen examples - and tied with a single other coin, the 1784 Mo-FM in this collection, for second finest certified by NGC - of the entire Charles III regular bust type. Also a rare date, missing in Eliasberg and unconfirmed in Burzio: the cataloguer could only trace 4 other specimens of this date, including the one in the Banco de Mexico collection, all in lower preservation. A coin that should attract type and date collectors alike and thus likely to see competitive bidding.From The Rudman Collection of Mexican Coins
Estimate: 4000-6000 USD
