Lot of 2 Potosi, Bolivia, cobs: 8R 1679(V or C) and 2R 1670(E). KM-26. 18.6 grams total. Both corroded, the 8R worn and scratched, the 2R very thin, but interesting in that the 8R certificate says "Santa Cruz" and the 4R tag says "Isla de Muerto Shipwreck," as both were marketed before the name of the wreck was known. With Sedwick certificate from 1997 (8R) and HRR tag #02411 (4R). Recovered from: Consolacion, sunk in 1681 off Santa Clara Island, Ecuador
