BOLIVIA, Potosí, cob 8 reales, Philip II, assayer M, legend DEI,G,ISPANIARVM, very rare, ex-Ponte. S-P2; KM-5.1; Cal-668. 27.06 grams. Choice AU- with faint toning on glossy surfaces, 100% full and well-struck interiors and nearly full legends as well, enabling confirmation that it is the variety with legend DEI G instead of D G and original Seville-style lions (missing in Sellschopp and Paoletti), a great piece for die study and quite rare as among the first 8R made at the mint after Rincón. Pedigreed to the Luis R. Ponte Collection.
