Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1762 Mo-MM AU58 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM155, Onza-744. Notable as the first date of issue for the "rat-nose" bust, this scarcer date remains difficult to acquire at all states of preservation. This fact renders the present example all the more impressive, standing as not only the finest certified by NGC, but expressing enviable eye appeal as well. The surfaces, silky and lustrous, are graced with an orange bloom of tone, matched by a sound strike that leaves an appealing portrait of Charles III.
