Philip V gold Cob Escudo 1716 Mo-J AU Details (Cleaned) NGC, cf. KM51.2 (for type), cf. Fr-7c (date range only), Cay-Unl., Cal-Unl. Though the type can be located in auctions with some regularity, we had yet to see or even become aware of the existence of a 1716-dated example until now. Unlisted in both Cayón and Calicó as well as the broader reference works, including the Standard Catalog of World Coins, the example here offered is necessarily one of great rarity. The date is clearly defined, leaving absolutely no room for interpretation as to the exact year, with the Mexico City mintmark expressed just as sharply below. We are excited to offer this rarity of Mexican and Latin American numismatics and expect fierce interest commensurate with this piece's allure.
