Broad flan with choice full castle and lion of a distinctive style matching the 8 reales of 1703, but we note that Barriga-Villalba's Historia de la Casa de Moneda (1969), Vol III, page 536, states that 1/4R around this time (i.e., with this castle and lion) were made only in 1704, 1705, 1707 and 1708, bold VF with contrasting toning on fields. Pedigreed to the Gran Colombia collection.
