-The first specimen was lot 199 in Sedwick Treasure Auction 28 (Winter Park, FL, November 2020), where it sold for $450. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "Potosí, [[Bolivia]], cob 4 reales, 1654E, dot-PH-dot at top, ex-Armstrong. Round and solid flan with uncorroded surfaces, full and well-centered pillars with particularly bold dot-PH-dot at top, choice but off-center full cross-lions-castles, two full dates and mintmarks, toned on fields. Pedigreed to the Doug Armstrong collection. Recovered from: ''Capitana'', sunk in 1654 off Chanduy, Ecuador." The second specimen was lot 627 in Sedwick Treasure Auction 28 (Winter Park, FL, November 2020), where it sold for $5,400. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "Potosí, [[Bolivia]], cob 4 reales Royal (galano), 1654E, dot-PH-dot at top, extremely rare, NGC XF details / plugged. Almost perfectly round and well centered, with contrasting toning on fields, high points of design evenly circulated, expertly repaired hole to left of cross / bottom of pillars (details restored), possibly unique as we cannot find another example in any published reference or sale. ALL 4R Royals are quite rare anyway! Pedigreed to our Auction #18 (lot #748)." This type was struck 1652-66 for Philip IV. It superseded the shield/cross type which was involved in the debasement scandal of the 1630's and 1640's.
