SPAIN. Cob 4 Escudos, 1699-S M. Seville Mint. Charles II. PCGS EF-40.
Fr-223; KM-58.2; Cal-957. Weight: 13.38 gms. The finest certified example of the date on either the NGC or PCGS population reports. The charmingly crude issue, struck on a somewhat compact flan, exhibits most of the shield and denomination with a full four-digit date and a partial cross. Attractive rich patina amongst the devices indicates prolonged storage under the right circumstances and is complemented by an iridescent sheen that pops out when titled in the light. Seldom encountered the attractive survivor is sure to see spirited bidding from collectors. To view all items from the Pat Johnson Collection, click
