Philip V gold 8 Escudos 1742 Mo-MF AU55 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM148, Onza-439. Highly lustrous and well struck, with minor surface abrasions preventing a higher designation. Very slight adjustment marks on the bust are noted for accuracy. Superior to both the Gerber and Eliasberg examples of the date, very scarce and eminently collectible in this borderline Choice AU quality.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
