COLOMBIA. Cob 4 Reales, 1622-S A. Bogota Mint. Philip IV. NGC EF-40.
KM-2.1; Restrepo/Lasser-M33S-2. Weight: 13.03 gms. The only certified example on the either NGC or PCGS populations reports. This EXTREMELY RARE early type seldom appears on the market and is always heavily sought after. This crudely made issue exhibits a decent, but uneven strike with a good portion of the details in the shield present, clear assayers letter and mint mark and a nearly complete ordinal "IIII". The cross is bold and complete with minor evidence of strike doubling. The surfaces do exhibit a slight granularity from saltwater emersion, but are quite nice and wholesome looking. An attractive example of the type with good eye appeal displaying rich gray tone with slate patina and minor earthen deposits amongst the devices adding to its originality.
