Mexico City, Mexico, cob 8 reales, 1655P, choice full date. S-M19, KM-45, CT-362. 27.0 grams. While this is definitely one of the commonest dates, we have probably never seen one so bold and complete as this, also with full (but weak) shield and cross and oMP, king's ordinal IIII in legend, toned and 100% corrosion-free, a super coin that rivals even non-salvage specimens in overall quality. With generic certificate and pedigreed to the Mark Bir collection. Recovered from: Maravillas, sunk in 1656 off Grand Bahama Island
