BOLIVIA, Potosí, cob 8 reales Royal (galano), 1710 Y, extremely rare, PCGS VF details / holed, finest and only example in PCGS census. S-P43a; KM-R31; Cal-1482. 26.38 grams. Crudely struck per the era but with its off-center pillars side enabling a 100% full date in legend that is almost never seen (rendered as ANO 17110 due to doubling), not to mention the full 1710 date below the full cross as well, toned in crevices, holed to left of cross. The only other example we know of, Lázaro 330 (rated R4), has a different pillars-side die with dot above the denomination, but the cross side is a match. An important coin for the advanced specialist.
