MEXICO. 8 Escudos, 1757-Mo MM. Mexico City Mint. Ferdinand VI. NGC AU-55.
KM-152; Onza-608. Very sharply detailed with surfaces that showcase intense luster and very few larger marks. While subtle, a trace of orange-red tone at the edges adds a hint of contrast, and character, to the appearance. Very telling that this piece was selected as the plate coin in the La Onza book, as the authors clearly attempted to image coins that were ideal representations.
From the Oro del Nuevo Mundo Collection.
Estimate: $3500.00- $4500.00
