This specimen was lot 11018 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2018), where it sold for $1,440. The catalog description[1] noted, "COLOMBIA. 1627-RNE 8 Reales. Cartagena mint. Philip IV (1621-1665). Restrepo M45.3. XF Detail — Salt Water Damage (PCGS). 26.78 grams. Another early Cartagena 8 Reales with a seawater provenance. Struck on a broad planchet that allows for a complete PHILIPPVS on the right side of the shield. Both the assayer and denomination are visible and the shield is well detailed. Despite peripheral corrosion, all four date digits are visible and the lions and castles are crisp, despite a gap near the cross's center where an inclusion has corroded away. Light silver gray with good appeal despite the minor surface imperfections. A rare fully dated 8 Reales of this type. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins."

KM 3.4, 1627-RNE unlisted date, type struck 1626-34, 27.07 g, .931 fine silver.
