Mexico City, Mexico, cob 8 reales, 1654P, with Indonesian countermarks on cross side. S-M19, KM-45, CT-360. 26.4 grams. Weak date (confirmed by distinctive style of castle) but bold full oMP, full shield, excellent full cross with one 4-pointed and 2 curlicue countermarks, richly toned VF+ with no corrosion but probably from a late-1660s Dutch wreck off Tuban, Indonesia. Pedigreed to the Mark Bir collection.
