Ferdinand VI gold 8 Escudos 1759 PN-J MS62+ NGC, Popayan mint, KM32.2, Onza-612. A commendable representative combining elements of both satiny and flashy golden luster with a sound strike that leaves no weakness in the outlines of the devices. Soft tangerine tone makes its presence known to the reverse, with a minute planchet flaw noted to 8 o'clock purely for completeness. Of rare quality for this conditionally elusive issue, and fittingly, the finest example of the date currently certified by either PCGS or NGC.
