Republic gold 8 Escudos 1856 Go-PF MS61 NGC, Guanajuato mint, KM383.7, Fr-72. Fully lustrous and highly-desirable in this Mint State quality, the current offering absolutely pleases with boldly-struck definition--particularly the reverse eagle motif--and gorgeous honey-tinged surfaces. Evidence of light handling is somewhat expected on a coin of this size and age, but does little to detract from the overall strength of this selection. Scarce, and perhaps even rare in this Uncirculated quality.
Estimate: 2500-3000 USD
