Republic gold 8 Escudos 1845 So-IJ MS62 NGC, Santiago mint, KM104.2, Fr-41. Hailing from a highly elusive series, this example is not only the first of this type that we have had the privilege of offering in over a decade, but it also enjoys the further distinction of certifying as the very finest example of the date seen by either of the major third-party grading services. The KM104.2 type is not to be confused with the later KM105 8 Escudos, which renders the standing Liberty on a smaller scale as compared to the fuller representation seen here. The specimen is struck on a sun gold planchet with abundant luster in the fields and a commendable degree of detail from a sound strike. An opportunity not to be missed for the serious connoisseur of the South American series.
