Alluring Gem 8 Escudos of Philip V

Philip V gold 8 Escudos 1735 Mo-MF MS65 PCGS, Mexico City mint, KM148, Cal-2234, Onza-428. Of unimaginable quality and preservation for this immensely popular colonial type that, even when witnessed in far inferior conditional assignments, generates ample collector interest as only eight have been submitted to both certification services and straight-graded. Laden with visually stunning die polish that dances across watery golden fields largely devoid of significant visual imperfection, the piece stuns even from afar. Mottled mulberry iridescence decorates the reverse while Philip V's unusually crisp portrait endures with a gentle frost. Of those currently holdered, only a single other ranks finer by way of a "+" designation, making this arguably the finest piece that will come to market for years to come.
