BOLIVIA. Cob 8 Reales, ND (1589-98)-P B. Potosi Mint. Philip II. PCGS Genuine--Edge Filing, EF Details.
KM-5.5; Cal-672; Paoletti-99. Weight: 25.72 gms, Variety with border of "X"s. A beautiful example displaying very clearly the unusual border pattern on both sides. A clear assayer, denomination, and rather strong Habsburg shield add to its considerable appeal. Some smoothing and filing along the edges accounts for the slightly reduced weight as well as the designation on the holder. However, the lovely charcoal gray surfaces more than compensate for this drawback.
From the S.P. Rutherford Collection.
Estimate: $300.00- $500.00
