Mexico: Republic gold 8 Escudos 1864 O-FR MS64 NGC,...
Description
Republic gold 8 Escudos 1864 O-FR MS64 NGC, Oaxaca mint, KM383.10, Fr-74. An often-celebrated 8 Escudos issue from the Mexican Republic, here of advanced quality not just for the date, but the series on its whole. Virtually nothing inhibits the harvest flash be it for some trivial wisps to the expansive fields, which are especially sparse to the reverse. A notorious issue for striking weakness, we note no such treatment here, with the details of the constitution and eagles feathers fully impressed upon the planchet beneath. Just two unfathomable MS66s outrank the current offering, making this an opportunity not to be missed by the ambitious type collector.Metal: Gold
