Cartagena, Colombia, cob 8 reales, 1630, assayer E below mintmark RN to right, rare, ex-Lasser, ex-Hyde, KM Plate. Restrepo-M45.12; KM-3.4; Cal-1235; S-C3. 25.41 grams. Choice full shield with full RN-E to right, also full but slightly doubled cross with clear 163 of date and faint curved bottom of 0 (has to be 1630 anyway because of the mintmark), all nicely toned with only light surface corrosion (AU details), a few natural flan-flaws, well pedigreed and desirable as a type-coin. Pedigreed to the Joseph Lasser collection (Ponterio auction of January 2005, lot 767) and to the Hyde collection (Spink auction of March 1990, lot 2845), also Plate Coin in Krause-Mishler's Standard Catalog references.
