Description
BOLIVIA. "Royal" Presentation Cob 8 Reales, 1726-P Y. Potosi Mint. Luis I. PCGS Genuine--Holed, EF Details.
KM-R35; Cal-45; Lazaro-307. Weight: 26.64 gms. The VERY RARE and always-desired "royal" issue of Luis I. Though multiple strikes made some of the details difficult to see, thanks to the great centering the all-important king's name appears quite boldly on the peripheral legend. Multiple instances of the date, mintmark, and other identifying features fill out the rest of the round planchet. Dark contrasting tone covers the protected areas, giving every detail some added boldness. As expected, a suspension hole pierces the 12 o'clock position. Quite satisfying and sure to please any specialist trying to add this keystone to their collection.
From the S.P. Rutherford Collection. Privately purchased from Richard Ponterio.
Estimate: $7000.00- $10000.00
