Charles IV gold 4 Escudos 1790 Mo-FM VF Details (Obverse Scratched) NGC, Mexico City mint, KM143.1, Cal-209. A tad softly struck on the centers and scratched in the bottom of the bust and across the date, yet lustrous in the recessed parts of the legends and with less than the expected wear at this designation. A very rare date for this elusive transitional type, with 5 or 6 known pieces to the cataloguer, and missing in the Banco de Mexico collection. No examples of this date are currently listed in the NGC census. An important coin for the specialist, despite the noted defects.From The Rudman Collection of Mexican Coins
