Ferdinand VI gold 8 Escudos 1751 LM-J AU53 NGC, Lima mint, KM50, Cal-764, Onza-577. The first year for milled coin production at the Lima mint, and one of only three dates that saw the use of this bust type. Though revealing clear wear to the features, this particular piece discloses electric violet and cobalt patina around the lettering of the legends, together with none of the planchet/lamination flaws that are often seen on the issue.
