Cartagena, Colombia, gold cob 2 escudos, Philip IV, assayer E below mintmark C to right, crosses inside and outside tressure around cross, NGC MS 62. Restrepo-M52.31; S-C7; KM-4.6; Cal-Type 378. 6.78 grams. Very bold full shield (stained red in crevices) with clear C-E to right and denomination II (reading vertically) to left, choice full cross and tressure and +'s inside and outside. (Note: Confusingly, the NGC census calls this "top pop" within a date range of 1630-35, whereas other examples of C-E like the previous lot were put under 1628-35, which tops out at MS 64.)
