Of exceptional quality for the type, fielding choice preservation that astounds the viewer at every turn. Rarely are these earlier milled 8 Reales encountered in so fine a technical state, nor with such a high degree of aesthetic appeal, rendering this a special example, and indeed, the tied-finest certified by NGC to date. Displaying needle-sharp detail, illuminated by underlying argent luster and traces of gold tone, this peak-level candidate for any advanced type collection simply cannot be ignored." This type, one of the first machine struck coins of [[Spain]], is recorded in Cayón<sup>[3]</sup> for 1586-1597. Numerous varieties exist, all rare. The arms of Spain on the obverse bear the escutcheon of Portugal, ruled by Spain 1580-1640.
