Very good on both of those bidask!

Those are some great grades. Moreover, both pieces look like dirty original gold.

"both of"

"grades", as in plural?

I only see one coin in the OP.

But it's a nice one!

An eight-escudo is impressive in any grade. That's a big ol' hunk o' gold.

Big gold is one thing, but big gold from the colonial era is a whole 'nother level of awesomeness.

I've never been able to afford anything bigger than a 1- or 2-escudo piece, goldwise.

He had the other coin listed in a separate post.
