Charles IV gold 8 Escudos 1794 Mo-FM MS63 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM159, Cal-1633, Onza-1024. Among the finest survivors yet certified for this date, with only a single MS64 ranked higher across both major grading services. Somewhat lightly struck to Charles' bust, as seems to be a common characteristic for the issue, with a scattering of light friction atop the central features complemented by highly satiny luster surrounding. Sun-gold throughout, and impressively brilliant.
