BOLIVIA, Potosí, cob 8 reales, Philip II, assayer RL. S-P13; KM-5.1; Cal-675. 27.16 grams. Oddly oblong flan with full crown and lots of legend (curious peripheral doubling on reverse making it look like EET INDIARVM), bold full cross and shield and P-RL, richly old-toned VF with traces of reddish sediment on shield, cataloged in 1981 as "a beautiful cob with fully legible legends." Pedigreed to the Galerie des Monnaies (New Orleans) auction of July 1981 (lot 561) and to the Ponterio auction of June 1993, with original lot-tag 683.
