PERU. 8 Escudos, 1754-LM JD. Lima Mint. Ferdinand VI. NGC AU-58.
KM-59.1; Onza-581 ("rara"). Three-year type. Lustrous and superbly struck for the issue, with impressive detail present in the central obverse depiction of Ferdinand VI's bust and on the reverse as well, where full segmentation appears within the shield. As the grade suggests, evidence of past circulation is limited, with a few scattered marks here and there being well within the confines of the assigned grade. Certainly among the finest that survive for the date, with its unsurpassed grade at NGC and PCGS serving as a testament to that fact.
From the Oro del Nuevo Mundo Collection.
Estimate: $3500.00- $4500.00
