Potosi, Bolivia, cob 4 reales Royal (galano), 1677E, extremely rare, NGC VF details / holed, ex-Americas, ex-Santa Rosa de Lima (both stated on label). S-P37b; KM-R25; Cal-501. 13.21 grams. Broad flan with nearly full legends, the inner details slightly doubled but all clear and nicely toned all over, with inevitable hole above the left pillar / near the left end of the cross. Possibly unique, as we cannot trace another specimen, which is typical for 4R Royals, most of which are unique. Pedigreed to the "Americas" collection (Kagin's auction of August 1983, lot #1201) and to the Santa Rosa de Lima collection (our Auction #18, lot #749), also pedigreed to the Ponterio auction of March 1992 (lot #793). NGC #5902427-005.
