Philip V gold Cob 4 Escudos ND (1714-1720) Mo-J MS66 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM55.2. 13.45gm. Of the utmost achievable quality for the issue, with devices rendered to razor sharpness at even the smallest points and a superb satin texturing in the fields virtually unencumbered by handling. That an example can survive so well-preserved is a true feat. Accordingly, no bidder is likely to encounter another such specimen for a very long time, if at all. This selection currently ranks as the finest seen by NGC, with the next two examples tied for second-finest graded at MS64.
