Philip V gold Cob 8 Escudos 1739 L-V AU55 PCGS, Lima mint, KM38.2, Cal-56. Clearly struck and displaying a particular boldness to the features often lacking in many other examples of these cob issues. Yet further, the flan, lustrous and minimally handled, is both compact and pleasingly rounded, which together with the other features lends a sharp allure to this historically important type.
