Philip III Cob 8 Reales 1609-Mo VF30 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM44.3, Cal-891, Cay-4875-4876. 27.22gm. An intriguing piece, and only the third year for which dated Cobs were produced in Mexico. Centrally struck on a mildly irregular flan, only the final digit of the date is still visible, which shows evidence of a die shift, rather than an overdate (though a 1609/8 overdate is recorded by Sedwick, cf. Sedwick-M16).
Ex. Heritage Auction #425 (January 2007, Lot 52325)
