PERU. South Peru. 8 Reales, 1838-C BA. Cuzco Mint. PCGS Genuine--Graffiti, EF Details.KM-170.4. This handsome piece displays great details across the cinder gray surfaces. Some unfortunate graffiti has been noted by PCGS and this is most prevalent in the fields near the sun face. While clearly limited in this regard, the strongly rendered details make it a wonderful piece for collectors of crowns that are looking for a budget example of the type. From the Hobart Collection.
