Santiago, Chile, gold bust 8 escudos, Ferdinand VI, 1750 J, NGC MS 62 PL / La Luz (1752), ex-Sotheby's (1993). Cal-822; KM-3. Spectacular mirrorlike luster with minimal marks, a couple spots of central weakness as usual, a very flashy and choice specimen, fully deserving of its PL ("prooflike") designation, with desirable original auction pedigree. NGC #5961243-004 (Shipwreck Blue Label). Pedigreed to the Luz (1752) and to the Sotheby's (New York) "Uruguayan Treasure of the River Plate" auction of March 1993, with original lot-tag #323 (1/2).
