MEXICO. 8 Escudos, 1766-Mo MF. Mexico City. Charles III. NGC AU-58.
KM-155; Onza-752 ("rarisima"). Bordering on Mint State, this impressive coin exhibits entirely fresh luster in the fields and stunningly bold designs that make the presence of highpoint friction, albeit very slight to begin with, seem invisible. The appearance of no mention-worthy marks solidifies it as an ideal representative of this famous "Rat Nose" type, with no imperfections that interfere with the aforementioned sharp designs. As a date, even RARER than most for this already elusive type, with this example remaining unsurpassed in grade at either NGC or PCGS.
Estimate: $7000 - $10000
