Republic gold 8 Escudos 1870 Do-CP MS65 NGC, Durango mint, KM383.3, Fr-68. The last date of production of the Durango Mint and a remarkable second gem example of this series offered in the sale. The evenness of the obverse surface results in a flashy brightness, with close inspection revealing faint die adjustment and and as-struck texturing but exceedingly little in the way of handing. On the reverse, also exceptionally preserved, whirling cartwheel luster leaps across the fields, illuminating the surfaces and enhancing the crisp outlines of the devices.
From the Anastasia Collection
