Potosi, Bolivia, cob 8 reales, 1770V-V. CT-959. 27.14 grams. The year 1770 was clearly a hiccup for the Potosi mint (see next lot), as the usual V-Y assayer was replaced with not just V-J but also V-V as we see on this coin, with clear V's at both upper-right and lower-left on the pillars side, the pillars and cross both bold and not overly worn (AVF), spotty toning.
