BOLIVIA. 8 Reales, 1778-PTS PR. Potosi Mint. Charles III. PCGS MS-62.
KM-55; FC-11; El-17 (R3); Cal-1175. This wholly original looking survivor displays lovely mottled gray patina with areas of richer coloration and plenty of underlying luster that pops out when rotating in the light. The strike is bold and with the aid of magnification the centering dot in the middle of the King's neck is still visible. Though technically not the finest certified, to this cataloger the quality is far nicer than the grade would suggest. Pleasing to the eye this lovely example is sure to catch the attention of many quality conscious collectors. To view all items from the Pat Johnson Collection, click here.
