BOLIVIA, Potosí, cob 8 reales, Philip III, assayer M (pre-dated type), rare from this wreck. S-P18; KM-10; Cal-919. 25.94 grams. Exceptional condition for this wreck with minimal corrosion, choice full cross-lions-castles with bold legend "-VMEX" (the R missing due to slight doubling) to show it is the pre-dated type, full shield with P•M to left and o-VIII to right, one of only a few Potosí pieces found on this wreck and a rather early one at that. With old original certificate 253 (rare type) from the salvors. Recovered from: Joanna, sunk in 1682 off South Africa
