Potosi, Bolivia, cob 8 reales Royal (galano), 1652E post-Transitional (Transitional Type VIII/B), 1-PH-6 at top, rare, NGC VF details / plugged, ex-von Schuckmann, ex-Faistauer. S-P37a; KM-R21; Cal-1410. 26.82 grams. A big and beautiful Royal with deep, rich toning all over, full details (just the cross side slightly off-center), and desirable pedigree, noted in the von Schuckmann sale as "unpublished," its cross side a die-match with Lazaro #134 (rarity R3) but its pillars side not a match with any others known, with expertly repaired hole on the second I of PHILIPPVS near the right end of the cross. Pedigreed to the von Schuckmann collection (Renaissance auction of December 2001, lot #3061) and to the Faistauer collection (Christensen auction of December 1979, lot #1225). NGC #5902400-006.
