MEXICO. Cob 4 Reales, 1710-Mo J. Mexico City Mint, Assayer Jose E. de Leon (J). Philip V. PCGS Genuine--Tooled, VF Details.
KM-40; cf. Cal-1080. Weight: 12.72 gms. The only certified example of the date on either the NGC or PCGS census. This decently preserved example displays rich gray patina on a fairly round flan with a four-digit date, though the first digit is only a partial. The cross and castles and lions are nicely centered, but do display some flatness and several tips of the cross are off the flan. Close inspection reveals evidence of numerous thin shallow pin scratches accounted for the details designation, long since toned over matching the rest of the coin. Despite its shortcomings a handsome example of the type with good eye appeal.
