Lima, Peru, cob 2 reales Royal (galano), 1692 V, extremely rare, NGC Fine details / plugged. S-L10; KM-unl (R21 for type); Cal-unl (Type 64). 6.71 grams. Broad, thin flan, perfectly round as a Royal should be, with some bold legend--particularly LIMA and (C)AROLVS--and technically full pillars and (off-center) cross but with several flat areas (plus a little doubling) that make the date somewhat unclear, and in fact we originally sold this in our Auction 17 as a 1693, but now we can discern a flat bottom for the last digit in both the legend date under the pillars and the doubled date under the cross (probably unique in any case, no others known to us, with maybe only one other date known in the whole Charles II type), lightly toned in crevices, plugged in crown at top of pillars side.
($1000-1500)
