Ferdinand VI gold 8 Escudos 1751 So-J MS63 NGC, Santiago mint, KM3, Cal-72, Onza-644. A spectacular example of the type, vibrantly prooflike with watery reflective surfaces. When one recovers from this dazzling effect, one begins to appreciate just how high-relief and sharp the strike is, the exceptional detail to Ferdinand's bust; a few minor contact marks are the sole detraction holding this coin back from far loftier designations, for it has exhibited no other hardships whatsoever and remains remarkably attractive. Look no further for a premium example of a Chilean 8 Escudos, for they do not come much better than this!
