MEXICO. 8 Reales, 1790-Mo FM. Mexico City Mint. Charles IV. NGC AU Details-Harshly Cleaned.
KM-108; FC-77; Yonaka-M8-90-IIII; Cal-952. One-year transitional bust type with the bust of Charles III, but in the name of Charles IV (Ordinal IIII). The handsome and moderately worn example exhibits a bold strike with even wear. The surfaces display light attractive dusky patina on the high points while the fields are a bit brighter in color. Close inspection reveals evidence of a past heavy cleaning, now slightly subdued. Despite its shortcomings a handsome example of the type with a decent look.
Estimate: $100 - $150
