This specimen was lot 11098 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2018), where it sold for $1,680. The catalog description[1] noted, "COLOMBIA.1652-R Real. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Philip IV (1621-1665). Restrepo M24.3. EF-45 (PCGS). Real, 1632-R. PCGS EF-45. 3.24 grams. Choice light silver gray with an ovoid planchet. An interesting type, with a pomegranate between the tops of the pillars, nice and well defined here. The visible 2 at the top left is enough to confirm the date positively. The reverse is very sharp, with a good shield at center and denomination visible to the right. The king's ordinal IIII is seen at the periphery. Plated in Restrepo to display this pomegranate and pillars type. From the Eldorado Collection of Colombian and Ecuadorian Coins. From a hoard discovered by Clyde Hubbard in Medellín in the 1950s and subsequently published by Robert I. Nesmith. Plated in Nesmith's "A Hoard of the First Silver Coins of Nuevo Reino de Granada (Colombia)," 1958, coin #10l, illustrated on plate XXXI and in a line drawing on p. 529."
if this is 1652, then this is KM 9 (1651-53).
