Ferdinand VII gold 8 Escudos 1824 Co-G MS61 NGC, Cuzco mint, KM129.2. A popular one-year type in astounding preservation, tied for finest graded by NGC. Almost nonexistent in this quality, some light metal flaws to Ferdinand's cheek are the sole observational note to make regarding this otherwise pristine offering, deeply lustrous and overlaid with golden-brown and red elements; seemingly conservatively graded with little in the way of contact marks or hairlines. The reverse appears to be essentially perfect, with prooflike reflectivity. We have never handled a finer example of this type.
