Cuzco, Peru, cob 2 escudos, 1698 M, error-variety with RX in legend, NGC MS 64 ("top pop"), ex-1715 Fleet 300th Anniversary Find. S-CZ1; KM-28; Cal-855. 6.74 grams. Extremely broad flan (basically a Royal compared to the usual "Bogota cut" flans), with full crown and legends, including bold RX (lacking the E) and C.II for Charles II, bold full pillars-and-waves and cross-lions-castles, the former doubled but highly lustrous, overall a stunning coin in top grade (currently tied with five others in the NGC census), just as lovely as they come. NGC #2819587-001 (1715 Fleet 300th Anniversary Find Shipwreck Label). From the 1715 Fleet, with original Queens Jewels "Tricentennial Hoard" photo-certificate 79503.
