Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1788 S-C MS62 NGC, Seville mint, KM409.2a, Onza-969. Point after "R" variety. A near choice example, brightly lit with a mint bloom over the deep gold planchet, Charles's bust fully defined and crisp, evidence of a light peach tone beginning to form in the recesses. Some very minor marks in line with the grade, but altogether an exceptional example of this final date and a superb representative of the type.
