Philip V gold Cob 8 Escudos 1711 L-M AU55 NGC, Lima mint, KM38.2, Cal-2119, Onza-237 (Extremely Rare), Oro Macuquino-237 (Extremely Rare). 26.9gm. From the 1715 Plate Fleet. A slightly earlier date Peruvian 8 Escudos, featuring slightly pebbly surfaces in keeping with its time spent underwater. Pleasing to locate without evidence of edge filing or use in jewelry, the offering displays comparatively good centering for the type, capturing a full date, assayer's initial, and mintmark, while its slight misalignment on the flan allows for an appreciable reading of several large portions of the legends.
