PERU. 8 Escudos, 1752-LM J. Lima Mint. Ferdinand VI. NGC MS-62.
KM-50; Onza-578. Stunningly designed, this coin remains gorgeous in all respects, with pinpoint definition through Ferdinand VI's clothing and curly hair and surfaces that hold no marks that distract the eye's attention. Sparkling luster throughout is further emboldened by the dramatic orange-gold tone that caresses both sides. While surpassed by a single example in the NGC grading census (that piece grading MS-63), we find it hard to imagine that it's more captivating than this piece.
From the Oro del Nuevo Mundo Collection.
Estimate: $4000.00- $6000.00
