Bogotá, Colombia, cob 2 escudos, posthumous Charles II, rare error struck from 1E dies. S-B24. 6.7 grams. Very thick flan with tiny cross (full but off-center) that is the right size for a 1 escudo but with the "scissors-type" ornaments that are more typical for the 2E (most 1E have simple x's), but the nearly full shield is also smaller than normal for a 2E, and the overall diameter of the coin is too small as well (but correct weight), lustrous Mint State. From the 1715 Fleet, with Cobb Coin Co. photo-certificate and tag #3294.
