Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1762 Mo-MM AU53 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM155, Onza-744. The first date of issue for the "rat-nose" bust, and a praiseworthy representative thereof, with quite a bit of "gleam" maintained in the fields, enhanced by a gratifying honeyed tone tinging the obverse and blessing the entirety of the reverse. Some highpoint friction and rub is noted, commensurate with the assigned grade designation, but the overall impression remains one of sharpness and indisputable quality.
