Mexico City, Mexico, cob 2 reales, Philip V, struck without shield-side die (unique error). KM-35. 6.2 grams. Nearly full and well-detailed cross, but what is more interesting is what is NOT there, for the entire shield side is blank and clearly never struck, with bits of coral on that side as well, the first example of such an error that we have ever seen from this wreck. Recovered from: Spanish 1715 Fleet, sunk off the east coast of Florida
