Potosi, Bolivia, cob 4 reales Heart, 1736 E, unique, NGC XF 45, finest and only example in NGC census. S-P46; KM-unl; Cal-unl. 11.06 grams. The perfect companion-piece with the 8R Heart of the same date in this auction (lot 857), and a new discovery coin like that one, a unique date among only four dates known in the entire post-Louis I type, with (now) only eighteen examples of all dates of 4R Hearts known. By all accounts this is also one of the most beautiful Hearts in existence, with the pillars side perfectly aligned (the cross side almost so) with the top stem and bottom tail of a perfectly shaped Heart, well centered and nearly devoid of doubling, flatness, or damage besides the inevitable hole in the stem, also with darkly toned fields contrasting with bold details, a trophy that any collector would want (but only one can have).
