Mexico City, Mexico, pillar 4 reales, Philip V, 1732, no assayer or denomination, extremely rare. KM-94; CT-1039. 5.6 grams. Very thin from corrosion but with all details still clear, first specimen of this "pattern" (Gilboy says "considered to be trial pieces, struck directly from the matrix sent from Madrid") that we have ever offered (unpriced in KM, compared to $2,000 in VG for the normal variety), nicely toned around elements for good contrast. From the Hollandia, sunk in 1743 off the Scilly Isles, southwest of England, housed in a hard plastic holder.
