PERU. Cob 8 Escudos, 1749-L R. Lima Mint. Ferdinand VI. PCGS AU-55. Fr-12; KM-47; Cal-761. Weight: 27.04 gms. An excellent survivor, though this example does exhibit the crudeness that is associated with cobs, it does retain great remaining and very clear detail--an alluring quality for the type, and one that should generate great enthusiasm. From the David Sterling Collection.
