1834 | Mexico 8 Escudo | Extremely Fine 40
Struck at the Guanajuato Mint in 1834, this gold 8 Escudo carries one of the most symbolic designs of the early Mexican Republic. The obverse features the iconic “Hand on Book” beneath the radiant liberty cap, representing constitutional law and the guiding light of liberty. On the reverse, Mexico’s proud eagle appears with wings spread, clutching a serpent while standing firmly on a cactus—a powerful emblem of national resilience.
Certified by NGC in Extremely Fine 40, the coin displays clear design details with attractive wear, reflecting its use in commerce nearly two centuries ago. Containing .875 fine gold, this large 8 Escudo was a trusted medium of exchange not only within Mexico but also across global trade networks.
An excellent piece of Mexican numismatic history, prized for its artistry and patriotic symbolism.
