Lima, Peru, bust 8 escudos, Charles IV, 1798IJ, rare error lacking the P in HISP. CT-unl. (cf. 16); KM-101 for type. 26.94 grams. VF/XF with lots of small lamination flaws on bust, striations from cleaning, but the egregious error quite clear. (For whatever reason, this variety is unlisted in KM and CT but appears as #993 in Calico's book La Onza [2004]).
