This specimen was lot 31047 in Heritage sale 3041 (Chicago, August 2015), where it sold for $5,170. The catalog description[1] noted, "Philip V gold 4 Escudos 1737 Mo-MF AU55 NGC, Mexico City mint. A most appealing coin, with vibrant luster and gorgeous copper-orange toning over surfaces devoid of distracting handling marks. Currently the highest certified example of this elusive date by NGC and superior to the vast majority of specimens seen of the type. Very rare in this select quality, and sure to attract strong interest from the discerning collector. From The Rudman Collection of Mexican Coins." All Mexican colonial gold may be considered scarce. This type, the only one showing the bust of Philip V, was struck 1732-47. The years 1732-33 are much scarcer than the rest but none are common.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 13.53 g, 0.917 fine gold, .399 troy oz AGW.
Catalog reference: Cayón-9849, Fr-9, KM 135, Cal-243.
