Jamaica
British Colony Counterstamped 1 Shilling 8 Pence ND (1758) XF Details (Removed From Jewelry) NGC, KM4.5. Displaying GR counterstamp (AU Strong) on a Ferdinand VI 2 Reales 1758 LM-JM from Peru (cf. KM53). Given the date of the host and of the decree, it's apparent this piece spent virtually no time in circulation prior to its revalidation for use in Jamaica. A scarce host for this highly collectible issue, decorated in choice champagne peripheries centering a fully argent interior.
