A Collection of MS 8 Escudos

Boosibri · January 18, 2019 10:00AM

All courtesy of @MrEureka and a part of my type collection of Spanish Colonial silver and gold. All shown are finest graded for the type thus far at either service, last I checked which was a while ago.

The most recent addition a 1735-Mo 8E. The lone gem at either service, 2 points about its sister, a 1738-Mo from the same collection.

The second piece is a scarce type, the Charles III Rat Nose and this piece tied for finest graded with another 63+ at NGC which recently sold at auction. Superbly original.

The third piece is an amazing Charles IIII 8E in MS65, a full gem and a wonder coin when compared with anything else I have seen

Wonderful coins !
I saw in hand the 1735 8e.
It’s great to have a dealer like MR E. To help source these coins .

Very nice grouping of 8E, @Boosibri. Congrats!

As for @MrEureka, I agree he is an asset to any well-meaning collector. I have two coins from him (one from his personal collection) that I value highly.
