BOLIVIA. Cob 4 Reales, 1726-P. Potosi Mint; Assayer Diego de Ybarbouru (Y). Luis I. PCGS VF-30.
KM-A35; Cal-35. Weight: 13.37 gms. A RARE posthumous issue of Luis I with plenty of detail despite its rather ragged planchet. The obverse shows a mintmark, denomination, partial assayer, and the crucial date. The reverse is largely flat, but displays its upper left quadrant boldly, including a castle and denomination mark. The pleasingly toned surfaces give it a rustic appeal. A crude but charming example of this rare type. To view all items from the Pat Johnson Collection, click here.
