Ferdinand VII gold 8 Escudos 1819 M-GJ AU55 NGC, Madrid mint, KM485, Cal-1775. The reverse of this piece is such a delight to behold with vibrant luster and a strong degree of originality. The obverse admits even wear across the King's bust, and is energized by vibrant hues of fiery orange and magenta silhouetting the legends. An exceedingly rare guest at auctions, the current offering representing the sole graded example at NGC, and we anticipate a hot contest as it crosses the auction block.
