Watch List notes:

Mexico City, Mexico, cob 2 escudos, 1714J, NGC MS 65, ex-1715 Fleet (designated on label). S-M30; KM-53.2; CT-350. Lovely red toning over lustrous surfaces, choice full cross and shield (the latter off-center) with bold full date, oMJ and king's ordinal V, nearly round flan with more cross-side legend than usual, including something we have never noticed before: an interesting ornament in the shape of a cross with hole in center, fully visible on this coin. NGC #1523492-001. From the 1715 Fleet, with photo-certificate.
