Charles IV gold 8 Escudos 1801 Mo-FT AU55 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM159. A pleasing honey-golden example with a well-executed strike for the type, save a bit of weakness on Charles' portrait, and lustrous glass-like fields in spite of noticeable handling marks. The reverse surfaces retain a pleasing satin-textured finish, with faint traces of die polish lines attesting to its quality.
