Uncertain Location
WORLD COINS, Uncertain location, Philip V, Réal, 1717jj, Madrid, obv. countermarked 6 (or 9) raised within a rectangular indent, 2.75g/42.4gr (Prid. 36 [Sale, lot 447, this coin]). Coin and countermark fine or better £150-200

Provenance: F. Pridmore Collection, Part I, Glendining Auction, 21-2 September 1981, lot 447.
This is one of the series of Spanish 1 and 2 réales (pistareen) coins countermarked 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. In some instances the same numeral stamp appears on 1 and 2 réales, making it difficult to view these countermarks as denominations, although attribution to Curaçao and the Dutch West Indies in general have been suggested in the past
