Philip IV gold Cob 4 Escudos ND (1630-1647)-R AU55 NGC, Seville mint, KM56.2, Fr-203. 13.42gm. A combination of old-age feel in conjunction with a subtle darkening of tone along the peripheries give this coin a pleasing appearance reminiscent of a true treasure coin. The strike is comparatively strong in the centers for this often crude series, with the very light circulation wear doing more to tone down the coin's former brightness than to remove any significant detail.
