This specimen was lot 586 in Sedwick Treasure Auction 27 (Winter Park, FL, May 2020), where it sold for $333.20. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "Potosi, [[Bolivia]], cob 8 reales, 1679C, NGC VF 20. Full cross (slightly doubled) and crown and pillars but some flat areas, three bold assayers and mintmarks, nice toning, no porosity. NGC #4836944-014." Royals are known of this type from the Potosi mint but all are rare. The regular cob issues are not nearly as nice. The years 1649-52 were a period of reform at the Potosi mint; it was found that the previous mintmasters in office 1625-48 had been debasing the cobs, a crime for which one official paid with his life. This date also has assayer E and C/E and an overdate, 1679/8.

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown.

''Specification:'' 27.07 grams, 0.931 fine silver, .810 troy oz ASW, this specimen 25.81 grams.

''Catalog reference:'' [[Spanish and Spanish colonial coins listed by Cayón number|Cayón-7575]], S-P38; KM-26; Cal-714.
