Potosi, Bolivia, cob 8 reales Royal, 1661E, encapsulated NGC VF details / holed. S-P37a; KM-R21; CT-424. Attractive strike for this period (no doubling), all details very clear (mostly bold) and well placed, on a perfectly round flan, the surfaces lightly gilded (which Lazaro posits may have been done at the mint on "original working specimens"), perfect coin alignment with the hole placed at the top of the cross, die-match with Lazaro #163.
