PERU. 8 Escudos, 1767-LM JM. Lima Mint. Charles III. NGC MS-61.
Fr-27A; KM-70; Cal-Type 187#1767. RARE quality for the type, this lovely Mint State example possesses sparkling luster in the fields and a remarkably bold portrait of Charles III. The flan is also far better than most seen, with none of the frequently seen laminations that often obscure the designs. Only surpassed by a single coin in the NGC census, this coin will undoubtedly excite the collector seeking a top-tier example of this iconic and notoriously elusive type.
From the Avrabanel Collection.
Estimate: $7500 - $15000
