COLOMBIA. 8 Escudos, 1757-NR J. Nuevo Reino Mint. Ferdinand VI. NGC AU-55.
KM-32.1; Onza-637 ("rarisima"); Restrepo-24.6. Displaying a choice strike with subtle orange toning accents at the margins on both sides that intermingle with beaming radiance that exists around the protected designs. Cataloged as a better date in La Onza, with only nine examples of the date appearing in the NGC and PCGS censuses. Only surpassed by two examples (both AU-58s), and accompanied by a famous pedigree, this example is sure to received spirited attention.
From the Oro del Nuevo Mundo Collection.
Ex: Caballero de Las Yndias Collection (Aureo & Calico 4/2009) Lot # 181.
Estimate: $4000.00- $6000.00
