Potosi, Bolivia, cob 1 real Heart, 1712Y, extremely rare. S-P43a; KM-unl. (cf. 28 for regular issue); CT-unl. (Type 265). 3.0 grams. The last of the 1712 Heart set in this auction (see lots 1208 and 1227), still classically shaped but with thinner stem, near-medallic alignment, good pillars-and-waves but cross double-struck (with 4-digit date as on the others), VF+ with light toning, the usual hole at the top of the stem stripped and supplanted with second hole to right of cross, admittedly the "easiest" denomination of the 3 but still desirable as a genuine Heart, of which very few come around for sale any more, and notably an unlisted date in the references.
