Ferdinand VI Pillar 8 Reales 1752 LM-J AU58 NGC, Lima mint, KM55.1. Notable as an early date from the Lima mint, and one that is not often encountered in the marketplace, displaying gunmetal surfaces accented by amber tone surrounding the deigns and fields that are noticeably smooth and without the typical marks seen on a coin of this size and age. The illustrative motifs are sharp, even with the limited amount of friction that affects the higher points, and when rotated, the open areas light up with residual mint luster that normally resides beneath the patina. A truly outstanding selection with historical importance as well as visual appeal.
Estimate: 6000-8000 USD
