Potosi, Bolivia, cob 8 reales, Philip II, assayer B (5th period), Grade 1, ex-Hebert. S-P14. 26.28 grams. Very solid and corrosion-free, with choice full shield and cross-and-tressure featuring distinctive late lions and castles and blocky borders yet with anachronistic commas in the legends (Sellschopp #269), just with some slight doubling that blurs the mintmark and assayer. Pedigreed to the Classics collection and to the Hebert collection, with Fisher/Miguel tag and photo-certificate #H-413. Recovered from: Atocha, sunk in 1622 west of Key West, Florida
