Philip V 8 Reales 1728 (Aqueduct)-F MS65 NGC, Segovia mint, KM336.1, Cal-938. Large Flan variety. A stunning Segovia mint presentation, rendered on a flan of exceptional broadness, with full execution of the meticulously segmented denticles on both sides that leaves metal to spare before the edges are reached. Immaculately preserved as well, the surfaces are nothing short of Gem quality, the central designs having been fully rendered by the strike, with shimmering luster and not a single mark of noteworthy consequence. Lovely tone advances the appearance to even higher heights, as the visual harmony created by the olive-brown base and the blue and gold iridescence is undeniably majestic. An absolute masterpiece of the period and not surprisingly, the single finest graded; a coin that belongs in a cabinet comprised of similarly astounding quality.
Estimate: 10000-15000 USD
