KM-44; Cal-Type-89. Weigh: 13.35 gms. This 4 Reales cob has a pleasing deep gray toning and an interesting overdate. The digits "69" are clearly visible beneath the "70" of the central obverse date. Portions of the mintmark and assayers' initials can be distinguished, and the denomination is quite clear despite minor doubling. Although the reverse offers comparatively fewer details, the coin overall is an attractive and intriguing example. To view all items from the Pat Johnson Collection, click
