MEXICO. 8 Escudos, 1856-Do CP. Durango Mint. NGC AU-50.
Fr-68; KM-383.3. A well detailed and evenly worn coin, from a date and mint not often seen at auction. Abundant luster remains in the peripheral areas, and the only mark of note is a vertical scratch above the snake. This particular piece can be traced back to B. Max Mel's sale of the Thomas W. Voetter Collection, January 1943, lot 67.
From the Steve Studer Collection.
Estimate: $1800.00- $2300.00
