MEXICO, Mexico City, 2 reales, Charles-Joanna, "Late Series," assayer O to right, mintmark oM to left (oM-O). Nesmith-109; S-M10; Cal-103; KM-12. 6.45 grams.

Pedigreed to the Steve Valentine Collection, with original certificate from the salvor/conservator. Recovered from: Santiago, sunk in 1585 off Bassas da India in the Indian Ocean
