MEXICO. 4 Escudos, 1712-MXo J. Mexico City Mint, Assayer J (Jose E. de Leon). Philip V. NGC MS-64.
Fr-7a; KM-55.1; cf. Cal-Type 262 # 2027; Cayon-9807; Grove-861; Oro Macuqino-108. The single finest certified of the date on either the NGC or PCGS population reports, none finer. Only 3 total pieces graded at NGC, none at PCGS. Crowned arms of Spain, consisting of Castile and Leon, Catalonia - Aragon, Sicily, Granada, Austria, Burgundy, Brabant, Flanders and Tyrol; denomination "VII" right (mostly off flan), mintmark and assayers letter "oXML" left; partial legend around; Reverse: Bar-tipped cross with fleurs-de-lis and curved ornamental accents in quarters all within a beaded border, legend around. An EXTREMELY RARE date with only a few known survivors. The central devices are quite bold though with a nicely detailed partial shield and nearly full complete cross, the pertinent digits of the date and mintmark/assayers letter. An attractive example of the type let alone of this seldom encountered date certain to see spirited bidding from serious collectors.
From the Las Colinas Collection.
