CHILE. 8 Escudos, 1825-So I. Santiago Mint. NGC MS-63.
Fr-33; KM-84; Onza-1613. Mintage: 8,483. A rather RARE date in any grade, this example is that much more so in the present state of preservation, as it is tied with just one other specimen for the finest in the NGC census. Exceptionally radiant and lustrous, this piece shimmers with seemingly unending beauty accentuated by a burnished golden-orange hue. The design itself further augments its charm, presenting two active volcanoes under a radiant personification of the sun above. A tremendous New World gold issue.
Estimate: $20000 - $30000
