Ecuador
Republic gold 8 Escudos 1852/0 QUITO-GJ AU58 NGC, Quito mint, KM34.1, Onza-1772 (Rare), Carr-94. Conveying sweeping golden brilliance and exceedingly sharp for the grade, with only the barest hint of wear justifying any certification below full Mint State condition. A fetching orange-gold tone overlies the surfaces, enhancing the eye appeal engendered by fluid luster that careens across the fields upon rotation. Marked by only light friction and isolated instances of contact throughout the surfaces, this offering should bestow significant prestige and pride of ownership to the fortunate ultimate winning bidder.
