Description
Carlos II Heart-shaped cob 4 Reales 1697P-CH, type of KM25, choice VF, holed at the top, very attractive strike with fully centered details, particularly on the obverse. 14.59 grams, which is slightly heavy for this denomination, but weight may not have been a priority at the mint in the preparation of these special presentation strikes. Extremely rare and a previously unknown date for a heart. Estimates are that fewer than 20 heart-shaped 4 Reales exist, and each may be unique by date! The CH assayer, Sebastian de Chavarria, was a temporary mintmaster in 1697 only.Auction Info
