Watch List notes:

Potosi, Bolivia, cob 2 reales, 1690VR, ex-Karon. S-P40; KM-24; CT-621. 6.51 grams. Very eye-catching "near-Heart" shape (originally described in Karon as "peculiar pomegranate-shape") with the full interior design on both sides (every detail choice, two dates and three mintmarks and assayers) nearly aligned with a long point in the flan, non-toned AXF. Clearly the minter of this piece took care to line things up and strike only once with a heavy, even blow! Pedigreed to the Paul Karon collection (Ponterio auction of March 1990, lot #582).
