PERU, Lima, cob 8 reales, 1660 V, date below VLTRA, very rare, ex-Ponte. S-L5; KM-18.2; Cal-1250. 27.42 grams. Many times rarer than the 1659 in this unauthorized two-year series, and surely one of the finest known, a richly toned AXF with 100% full cross-lions-castles (well centered) and near-complete pillars design showing a full date •660• below the bottom of the pillars but within the inner border, the rarely seen waves (full) actually inside the legend between the king's name and ordinal IIII, also full L-8-V to right of pillars, all in all an incredible example showing details that would normally require several pieces to see. Pedigreed to the Luis R. Ponte Collection.
