Mexico City, Mexico, pillar 8 reales, Philip V, 1738MF, NGC AU 55, ex-Potomac Collection (stated on label). KM-103; CT-783. 26.96 grams. Gorgeous toning all over, the pillars side morphing from golden in middle to deep blue at rim and the shield side less regular but with intense blues and reds, no marks, minimal high-point wear, with any remaining luster obscured by the vivid colors, surely a candidate for "star" designation. Pedigreed to the Potomac collection of Mexican pillars. NGC #4743644-001.
Estimate: $600-900
