    The 8 escudo is awsome <3 - the 2 reales a bit over exposed ? Is that the last escudo minted for the federation of central america countries ? beautifull design.

    I believe that the 8E is the finest graded for the type but could be wrong.

    The 2R is over exposed. It is proof like and very difficult to get a good shot of straight on so I tilted it into the light and bumped the contrast. Need an expert for that one. I believe that there is one other MS65 for the type, at auction now at NYINC, but I like this piece better.

    The CAR Escudos went to 1850 which is exceptionally rare so practically the 1849 is the final collectable date/
