Ecuador Republic gold 8 Escudos 1839 QUITO-MV MS62★ NGC,

Ecuador
Republic gold 8 Escudos 1839 QUITO-MV MS62★ NGC, Quito mint, KM23.1, Chaves-892, Onza-1757 (Rare), Carr-81. Exceptionally attractive, and by far the nicest example of the type-date we have ever had the privilege of offering, with the Eldorado specimen ranking as a mere AU Details by comparison. Surpassed by a mere 2 pieces in MS65 at NGC--one of them the Millennia example--the offering seen here fields an allover pervasive glassy luster, capturing subtly rosy undertones and securing its "star" designation for singular visual allure. Further pervaded by thick die polish in the fields beneath only light scattered marks, and a must for the connoisseur of high-end Latin American gold.
