MEXICO. 8 Reales, 1788-Mo FM. Mexico City Mint. Charles III. PCGS MS-61.
KM-106.2; Cal-1132; Yonaka-M8-88. Semi-reflective flashy fields are the first thing you will notice about this brilliant uncirculated Charles III 8 Reales. With a bold strike that puts many of its brethren to shame, the current example is borderline semi-prooflike and while it may have the occasional light hairline, the luster of an overall presentation is sure to win over even the most nuanced of Spanish Colonial collectors. One of the very best for the date with only 4 higher at PCGS.
The Stendebach Collection.
Estimate: $800 - $1200
