This specimen was lot 629 in Sedwick Auction 36 (Winter Park, FL, November 2024), where it sold for $. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[Bolivia|BOLIVIA]], Potosí, cob 1 real, 1628 T/P, ½R-sized castles and lions, very rare, ex-Ponte. Full and bold date (all four digits) outside of off-center full cross with tiny castles and lions, very bold and certain assayer T/P (decidedly not P/T) to left of full shield with minor flat spots, Fine with contrasting toning. Pedigreed to the Luis R. Ponte Collection." This type was struck 1625-48 for Philip IV. It was discredited in the debasement scandal of 1650-52 when authorities in Spain finally acknowledged that a cabal at the Potosi mint had been cheating the king for years. Assayer T operated 1626-36 and 1643-48 and was probably deeply implicated in the debasement fraud.

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown.

''Specification:'' 3.43 g, 0.931 fine silver, this specimen 3.10 grams and likely debased.

''Catalog reference:'' [[Spanish and Spanish colonial coins listed by Cayón number|Cayón-limonite]]; S-P24; KM-12a; Cal-unl (Type 201).
