Cartagena, Colombia, cob 2 escudos, Philip IV, assayer E (1630?), Plate Coin in Restrepo. S-C7; KM-4.6. 6.8 grams. One of the broadest-flan cob 2E we have ever seen, with choice full shield and cross-and-tressure, full mintmark-assayer to left and denomination to right, king's ordinal IIII in legend, lustrous AU with natural rust spots at top of obverse, would be the perfect coin if it just had a visible date (tentatively ascribed to 1630 with dots inside and outside tressure).
