Description

BOLIVIA. "Royal" Presentation Cob 4 Reales, 1683-P V. Potosi Mint, Assayer Pedro de Villar (V). Charles II. NGC AU Details--Plugged.

KM-R25; Cal-503. Weight: 13.82 gms. The only example certified on the either the NGC or PCGS population reports. This VERY RARE and highly coveted 4 Reales Royal exhibits boldly struck devices on a somewhat compact flan with a slight shift in the striking process. Attractive rich mottled gray and slate patina add to its pleasing appearance with even wear primarily contained to the high points. Close inspection reveals evidence of a tasteful and expertly repaired hole in the legend at about 5 o'clock on the obverse now toned over matching the rest of the coin. Despite its shortcomings this charming survivor offers much originality with good eye appeal that is certain to be a welcome addition to the next collection it enters.
