Mexico Philip V gold Cob 8 Escudos 1713 MXo-J MS66 NGC,

Mexico
Philip V gold Cob 8 Escudos 1713 MXo-J MS66 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM57.1, Cal-2211, Onza-390 (Extremely Rare), Oro Macuquino-390 (Extremely Rare). 26.65gm. Pairing absolute and conditional rarity, this amazing survivor has it all. Other than bearing the finest grade ever awarded by either NGC or PCGS for the date, this premium gem boasts exuberant surfaces with the trademark peripheral flatness, but deeply engraved central motifs. On top of bearing a bold and desirable 1713 date, alongside a full MXo mintmark, assayer's initial and denomination, this coveted piece shows a near-full shield and a breathtaking complete cross. A piece for the most discerning Spanish colonial type collectors, as well as any enthusiast of a Gem Mint State coin that survived three centuries lost at sea.
