This specimen was lot 11115 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2018), where it sold for $528. The catalog description[1] noted, "COLOMBIA. 1658 1/2 Real. Santa Fe de Nuevo Reino (Bogotá) mint. Philip IV (1621-1665). Restrepo M16.6. VF-35 (PCGS). 1.72 grams. Medium gray with pleasing multicolor toning. A somewhat crude 658 is visible above the cross, a date unlisted in Restrepo. Fairly well centered on an oblong planchet, a very attractive piece.
