Charles III gold 8 Escudos 1769 NR-V MS62 NGC, Nuevo Reino mint, KM41, Cal-2091, Onza-860 (Extremely Rare), Restrepo-M71.14. A conditional wonder for any Spanish colonial 8 Escudos of this period, let alone this elusive assayer from Nuevo Reino. Exceeded by a mere two specimens between NGC and PCGS combined, careful examination reveals die polish filling nearly every square inch of the open fields, which for their part resound with cartwheel effects. Certainly among the nicest specimens we have brought to auction, and a coin which in many respects edges on fully Choice Mint State condition.
