Philip V gold 8 Escudos 1736/5 Mo-MF MS61 NGC, Mexico City mint, cf. KM148 (unlisted overdate), cf. Onza-429 (same). Astoundingly charming, this luminous Mint State 8 Escudos displays an array of features, all of which culminate in a unique and captivating visual appeal. The strike is well-centered and the fields framed by full and slightly upturned rims, emboldening the central devices, themselves surrounded by satiny and glowing luster. A clear object of intrigue, both as an unlisted overdate and as the finest example certified by NGC, the only one at the uncirculated level.
