Charles III gold 4 Escudos 1788 So-DA VF30 NGC, Santiago mint, KM33, Fr-16. An extremely rare issue, with a mintage of just 1,020 pieces, this charming example features fairly strong detail for the grade assigned, with a good deal of remaining luster. The degree of relief on the right side of the king's portrait is especially noticeable. Also noted is a lengthy die crack along the right side of the obverse, as well as some adjustment marks running across the king's neck. A great rarity.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
