Spain
Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1778 M-PJ AU58 NGC, Madrid mint, KM409.1. A slightly better date in the series, with aged patination and russet color that resides within the protected areas. Inconsequential wear affects only the higher points and several grade-defining marks surround the bust of Charles III. Highly-collectible in grades that approach Mint State, and most engaging as such.
Estimate: 2500-3000 USD
