Peru
North Peru. Republic gold 8 Escudos 1838 LIMA-M AU53 PCGS, Lima mint, KM156, Fr-87. A choice, lightly circulated example of this rarity, with an above-average strike for the type and ample remaining luster in the fields. Attractive sunset-orange tone at the legends accents the appearance with no marks of any significance demanding the eye's attention on either side. A one-year type, and as such, most-important for the type collector of Latin American gold.
Estimate: 6000-8000 USD
