SPAIN. 8 Escudos, 1772-M PJ. Madrid Mint. Charles III. NGC AU-58.
Fr-282; KM-409.1; Cal-Type-190#1956. Ideal for the grade, this pleasing almost Mint State example displays great flash, with a choice strike and compliments of orange and rosy tone that add character on both sides. Perhaps most notable however are the surfaces that, while holding a number of marks, display none that grab the viewer's attention, allowing for an breathtakingly even appearance. Underrated in this quality, NGC has only seen two examples that breach the Mint State tier, both being of MS-62 quality.
From the Avrabanel Collection.
Estimate: $2000 - $3000
