Venezuela
Caracas. Royalist and/or Republican Cob 2 Reales 184 Fine Details (Holed) NGC, Caracas mint, KM-C13.1, Stohr-9-C13, OAV-2R-C.A.7. By all indications a more fleeting varieties of this scarce "fantasy" date, deviating from the illustrations in Stohr and Ortega, Arrieta, and Vitiello in that this piece shows a floral pattern below the waves rather than a pellet. The positioning of this device almost suggests against the border of rosettes subtype.
