Potosí, Bolivia, cob 8 reales, 165(1)O, with crowned-O countermark (scarce) on cross. S-P35. 27.0 grams. Very choice, uncorroded details all over (looks like a presentation piece of some sort) enhanced by beautiful brown toning, the countermark not bold but all there, also the tops of the digits of the date off the edge, overall one of the most beautiful specimens we have ever seen. Recovered from: Capitana, sunk in 1654 off Chanduy, Ecuador.
