1806 Chile 8 Escudo PCGS AU-55

Housed in an old-style PCGS holder, this 1806 Chilean 8 escudo is struck in dark orange gold and has gorgeous overall eye appeal.

Issued nearly 220 years ago and containing .76 oz of pure gold, the coin is far more rare than the low populations would lead you to believe.

In fact, NGC and PCGS combined have seen only 17 examples in all grades. If you’re looking for a solid value in Spanish Colonial Gold, coins like this are tough to beat.
