Potosi, Bolivia, cob 8 reales Royal, 1653E, .PH. at top, ex-Ullian collection. S-P37a; KM-R21; CT-410. 23.8 grams. Not quite round but with full and clearly Royal-worthy details, including full legends and well-struck interiors, on an evenly-thick planchet, attractively toned with only a touch of corrosion, comparable to the only other known Royal from this wreck, which sold for $6,600 in the original Capitana auction in 1999. Pedigreed to the Lou Ullian collection. Recovered from: Capitana, sunk in 1654 off Chanduy, Ecuador
