Lima, Peru, cob 8 reales, 1726M, rare. S-L20b. 21.24 grams. Full date between off-center pillars, also full assayer and mintmark on that side, nearly full cross, crude flan with much flatness but not much surface corrosion (some edge loss), a few dark spots, rare date anyway but not necessarily Louis I as stated on tag (could be Philip V).
