MEXICO. Cob 4 Escudos, ND (1679-95)-MXo L. Mexico City Mint. Charles II. NGC MS-63.
KM-54, Cal-Type 23a. Jeweled Cross variety. Crudely produced as is always the case, with a full cross remaining on flan as well as the denomination and much of the shield on the other side. Free from wear, this piece exhibits a fine sandblasted appearance that results from prolonged saltwater exposure. Even so, the single finest example of this VERY RARE Charles II 4 Escudos issues, sure to thrill the collector that has been patiently waiting for a choice example to come to market.
Ex: 1715 Plate Fleet.
Estimate: $10000 - $15000
