S-3765A; KM-636. Authorized 9 March 1797. Countermark: Bank of England Type I; Raised bust of George III within oval indent. Applied to the obverse of a 1788-LIMAE IJ Peru bust 8 Reales of Charles III (KM-78A). Struck on a RARE host coin, this piece displays a rather charming miniature bust of the British king.

A charming example with even, moderate wear.
