PERU, Lima, cob 2 reales, Philip II, assayer X to right, large castles and lions, very rare. S-L3; KM-9; Cal-336. 6.60 grams. Full and well-detailed shield and cross, with bold assayer and clear denomination, not much legend, slightly porous AXF with a few hairline cracks, with curiously oversized lions and castles in the same style ("Segovia" lions) used on later issues at Potosí, namely those of assayers R, L and B (but not M), hence probably the same punches transferred to Potosí after the brief striking in La Plata. Pedigreed to the Jorge Ugaz Collection of Lima Silver Cob 2 Reales.
