Philip II gold Cob 4 Escudos ND (1556-1598)-A MS66 NGC, Valladolid mint, Fr-164, Cal-29. 13.41gm. A type virtually unseen so well-preserved, this specimen may as well have been struck yesterday for its sheer lustrous quality and faultless conditional state. Wholly brilliant across its surfaces, with every minute detail gleaming in gold and traceable with the sharpness and execution with which the coin was produced over 400 years ago. The reverse is of particular note, where the open expanses express hardly a single flaw for all practical purposes, the central cross boldly defined and clearly outlined. Unmatched in certified condition, only a single "MS62" seen by NGC coming even close to this impeccable example.
