Description: For sale is a rare and highly sought-after gold cob 8 escudos coin from Lima, Peru, minted in 1715 with the mintmark "M." This particular coin has been certified by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation) as XF 45, indicating its excellent condition. It comes with the prestigious ex-Loosdrecht provenance, having been part of the shipwreck collection since 1719, as indicated by the Shipwreck Label. The coin features full pillars-and-waves and cross-lions-castles designs, although the latter is slightly off-center. The legends on the coin are well-preserved, including a partial second date. The fields of the coin exhibit a distinctive pumpkin-orange color, which is characteristic of coins from this shipwreck. This coin is not only a rare find but also a popular date among collectors.
