Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1776 LM-MJ AU50 NGC, Lima mint, KM82.1, Cal-1936. An especially sought-after issue dated "1776," which is both collectible and rare as an issue and for the date's association with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. A charming representative exhibiting apricot and mulberry tones which would cause any collector to pause and appreciate the present offering's surfaces. Despite a designation shy of Mint State, only two have been certified finer by NGC.
