PERU. 8 Escudos, 1766-JM. Charles III (1759-88). NGC AU-53.
Fr-28; KM-70; Cal-Type-5#14. Struck the year Charles III greatly reduced the authority of the Spanish Inquisition back in Spain. Fewer than ten pieces have been seen in any grade at NGC. A handsome yellow example with a tinge of green, that has nearly complete detail in the portrait and reverse coat of arms. An exceptionally nice example, and one that is sure to generate considerable interest. NGC AU-53.
