Bogota, Colombia, cob 8 reales, 1622 A, rare. Restrepo-M42.1; S-B1; KM-3.2; Cal-1534. 22.53 grams. Choice full cross-lions-castles (slightly doubled) and shield with 100% sharp details (including pomegranate in center, presumably indicative of the second set of dies and once believed to be the difference between Cartagena and Bogota), bold full assayer A to right, clear 22 of date, nicely toned AU but with light corrosion all over and some minor edge-loss as undoubtedly from one of the Spanish 1622 Fleet shipwrecks (Atocha or Santa Margarita).
