Popayán, Colombia, bust 8 escudos, Charles III, 1774JS, from an unidentified shipwreck. KM-50.2, CT-125. 27.0 grams. AU or even UNC details but with matte fields and sediment and a few minor pecks that prove its salvage origin, which was probably either McKee's mysterious "Pitch Barrel wreck" or the 1815 San Pedro de Alcántara off Venezuela, or possibly some other wreck off Colombia. Pedigreed to the Mark Bir collection.
