MEXICO. Cob 8 Reales, ND (1607-17)-Mo F. Mexico City Mint. Philip III. PCGS VF-30.
KM-44.3; Cal-Type-162. Weight: 26.35 gms. An appealing colonial Mexican crown struck on a broad planchet. While most of its peripheral detail is illegible, the piece retains abundant rustic charm. A rather bold mintmark and assayer initial appear beside the mostly intact Habsburg shield, and the cross with its castles and lions is well-presented. Lightly toned and free from distracting damage, this piece is certain to attract collectors of Mexican Cob issues.
Estimate: $300 - $500
