Potosi, Bolivia, cob 1/2 real Royal, 1732, unique. 1.46 grams. Although diminutive in size, this is a "power coin" in terms of strike and rarity, its bold monogram and cross and date a stark contrast to regular, non-Royal issues, at least VF+ and beautifully toned, with inevitable hole at one end of the cross. By our records, the only other 1/2R Royal publicly known of this type (Philip V post-Louis) is a 1736 from the Karon collection.
