This specimen was lot 2304 in Sincona sale 83 (Zurich, May 2023), where it sold for 1,200 CHF (about US$1,606 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "ARGENTINA Provincias del Rio de la Plata, 2 Reales 1815 F, Potosi. ''Fast vorzüglich. Feine Patina'' (About extremely fine, Nicely toned)." After General Belgrano captured the villa of Potosí, the general assembly in Buenos Aires issued a law authorizing the minting of the first Argentinian coins on April 13, 1813 in silver and gold. Striking continued until November of the same year when the villa of Potosí was recaptured by forces loyal to the Spanish crown. The mint was reoccupied by General Rondeau and the similar designs previously mentioned were struck in 1815 from April to November, when the Spanish forces once again retook the villa of Potosí. The Potosi mint also struck two soles for Argentina ([[Argentina 1815-PTS FL 2 soles|KM 12]]) in 1815.
