This specimen was lot 75830 in Stack's Bowers June 2026 World Premier Collectors Choice Auction (Costa Mesa, CA, June 2026), where it sold for $317.20. The catalog description[1] noted, "PERU. 4 Reales, 1811-LIMAE JP. Lima Mint. Ferdinand VII. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, Good Details. Standard Bust variety. From the Richard August Collection." This standard bust issue of 1811 is very rare. The design was struck again 1812-21 and those dates are uncommon but not scarce. Harris[2] noted finding about three times as many Peruvian four reales of Ferdinand VII as that of Mexico. Assayer "JP" is noted for the years 1803-23.
