PERU. Cob 4 Reales, 1718-L. Lima Mint; Assayer Felix Cristobal Cano Melgarejo (M). Philip V. PCGS VF-35.
KM-33; Cal-1032. Weight: 13.34 gms. This rather attractive piece offers a boldly struck obverse with the denomination, mintmark, assayer's initial, and date. The reverse retains the final digit of the date below the central cross with a pair of impressively detailed castles. Both sides display a nice light gray tone that darkens in the protected areas, giving the well-preserved details additional emphasis. A coin rich with eye appeal and delightfully problem-free.
