Owner Comments:
Transitional type with portrait of Carlos III, and title of Carlos IV. Slabbed purchase from the Stack's Bowers November 2013 Baltimore Auction, Lot #21250. Unlike the Mexico City 8 reales busts at this auction purchased by other bidders, I got this one for a reasonable price. KM-87; FC-48; El-50. Fully struck, bright luster with light toning with the exception of a few contact marks on the obverse this coin would likely grade as MS.
