Seville, Spain, gold bust 1/2 escudo, Ferdinand VI (fourth bust), 1756 PJ, stars in legend, NGC MS 63, finest known in NGC census. Cal-582 var; KM-374. Bright luster and choice strike, including rims, with only faint surface hairlines. There is some confusion behind the varieties for this date, as Calico lists only "puntos" (dots) for the legend for this bust (NGC and KM do not distinguish the different busts), while NGC shows both "stars" and "rosettes" in the census, which we suspect are the same thing, as this coin shows that the "stars" are actually small, five-point flowers. NGC #2062508-004.
