CHILE. 8 Reales, 1758-So J. Santiago Mint. Fernando VI. NGC AU-58.
KM-5; Yonaka-S8-58; Gil-SC-8-7; Cayon-10631. Mintage: estimated 19,979 pieces. EXTREMELY RARE, popular and highly sought after. All Chilean pillar coinage is really difficult to obtain in any grade, let alone one in this state of preservation. The overall combination of eye appeal, originality and quality of this classical Latin crown raises the caliber of coin this piece really is. The surfaces exhibit a lovely amalgamation of smokey grey and russet colors over the lustrous fields that accentuates the bold intricate design features. An excellent representative of the type where the grade doesn't necessarily reflect the quality. The pervasive tone offers great eye appeal certain to be the center piece of the next collection it enters.

Estimate: $30000.00- $50000.00
