Potosí, Bolivia, cob 8 reales, 1652E transitional Type VII/A. S-P37. 26.4 grams. Very choice, Royal-like, uncorroded and with full details (except for parts of legend), nicely toned, just a bit doubled (curiously making the central date 52 appear twice), the crowns and shield especially appealing. Recovered from: Capitana, sunk in 1654 off Chanduy, Ecuador.
