Potosi, Bolivia, cob 8 reales, 1690 VR, NGC VF 35. S-P40; KM-26; Cal-733. 26.74 grams. Bold and well-detailed full pillars-and-waves and cross-lions-castles with just a few flat spots, three dates, two mintmarks and assayers, attractively toned, arguably XF 45 to our eyes (still tied for second finest in NGC census behind a single XF 40).
