Silver cob 8 Reales of Philip IV. Mint : Santa fe Nuevo Reino (Colombia). Reference : Restrepo M44.21 var. Certified and encapsulated by PCGS in XF-40. An interesting unlisted variety with the N/R mintmark to the right of a shield with a lion-castle upper left quadrant.
Beautiful metal quality and toning are present on both sides of this non-salvage piece. The mintmark is bold, as is most of the shield but for a thumbprint-shaped unstruck depression near 6:00. The cross side is also crisp and attractive. Very handsome, and rare as an unsalvaged survivor of this type. SILVER COB 8 REALES PHILIP IV.
