Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1760 Mo-MM XF45 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM140, Cal-316. A solid example from this feeling series that shows the armored bust of Charles III set atop broad surfaces that have darkened to an olive-gold color. A touch of copper still manages to shimmer at the legends, and while the effects of moderate handling are observed, the overall nature of this offering remains strong. Scarce at all levels, and an important gold issue from the early reign of Charles III that is wholly deserving of a premium bid.
