Mexico City, Mexico, bust 2 escudos, Philip V, 1732F, extremely rare, encapsulated NGC AU 58, finest known in NGC census. CT-356; KM-124. Lustrous and beautifully struck on a planchet broad enough to receive full-rim details, with just a trifle weakness in the locks of the wig and a few faint marks in the fields, one of only four confirmed examples of the highly desirable first date of machine-struck gold coins of the Americas (notably missing in the Banco de Mexico collection), and especially significant as the finest known (by two grades) of just three in the NGC census. NGC #3735673-001.
