Mexico
Philip V Pillar 8 Reales 1740 Mo-MF MS64 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM103, Cal-790. An impressive survivor, with intricate detail remaining over all portions of the design and fields that possess attractive luster due to satin-like texture in the fields. Most important to the eye-appeal however is the sheath of tone that compliments both sides, with orange-peach and mauve tones concentrating in the centers and brighter instances of blue, green, yellow and violet tone highlighting the outer registers. Very rare with this combination of technical quality and outstanding toning and sure to generate excitement among date and type collectors alike as a result.
