MEXICO. 8 Escudos, 1772-Mo FM. Mexico City Mint. Charles III. NGC AU-53.
KM-156.1; Cal-1998. This is the first year of a two year type with inverted mintmark and assayer. This type is missing from many gold collections, and when it comes up in auction, it is the recipient of some serious bidding.
Estimate: $2000 - $2500
