-This specimen was lot 572 in Sedwick Treasure Auction 27 (Winter Park, FL, May 2020), where it sold for $446.25. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "Potosí, [[Bolivia]], cob 4 reales, Philip II, assayer B (early 5th period?). Choice full shield, full but slightly doubled cross (distinctive style, like 8R lots 549-550 in this same auction), bold assayer B and denomination o-iiii, XF with a few dark streaks." The mountains around Potosi contained enormous amounts of high grade silver ore, a situation the Spanish were not slow to exploit. A mint was set up in the 1570's to process the silver mined there. The early products of the reign of Philip II are fairly good quality but rot set in during the following reign, including fraudulent debasement. The Potosi mint was the second mint in the western hemisphere to date its products. Dating began in 1617.
