SPAIN GOLD COB COIN 1 ESCUDO 1516-56 ~ NGC 35 ~ PERFECTLY ROUND! SCARCER THAN THE S-D VARIETY!  CROSS OF JERUSALEM & COAT OF ARMS FOR SPAIN ON OBV. WEIGHT @ 3.3gr. WHAT IS SO INCREDIBLE ABOUT THIS PIECE (AS WITH THE PREVIOUS MINT STATE 1 ESCUDO WE OFFER), SETTING IT APART FROM THE MASSES IS THE NEARLY PERFECTLY ROUND PLANCHETT / FLAN AND THE STRONG STRIKE, ESPECIALLY IN THE LEGENDS. ALSO, THE TONING CAUSED BY THE STRONG STRIKE ADDS SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE AESTHETICS OF THIS COIN, MAKING IT GREAT FOR A DISPLAY PIECE! WE'VE HANDLED SEVERAL 1 GOLD ESCUDOS FROM SPAIN AND OF THIS TIME CIRCA, BUT NEVER ONE THIS BEAUTIFUL!
