Mexico
Charles III 2 Reales 1774 Mo-FM MS64 PCGS, Mexico City mint, KM88.2. A superbly-executed example of the type and currently tied for the highest certified from PCGS, this crisp slate-gray offering reveals subtle hints of iridescence--include summer champagne-tinged hues and blasts of cobalt--when rotated in hand. Significantly scarcer than the larger and more popular 8 Reales, this fractional issue is sure to delight and arouse the interests of Mexican collectors seeking out the peak of eye-appeal.
