Potosi, Bolivia, cob 2 reales Royal (galano), 1762V-Y-V, extremely rare (unlisted), NGC VF 30. S-P57; KM-unl; Cal-unl. 6.57 grams. The perfect companion piece to the Charles III 4R Royal 1760 listed above (lot 637), as this 2R is also unlisted and probably unique and particularly rare and desirable as having NO HOLE, with bold strike on a thick, even, perfectly round but small-diameter flan, the pillars side perfectly centered but the cross side placed just off-center enough to pick up the bold second date, the lions and castles in the quadrants curiously rotated 90 degrees, with contrasting toning in crevices. In fact, the entire Charles III type is unlisted in this denomination for Royals, hence we cannot even assign a Type from Calico or KM. NGC #5902427-011.
