For the colonial period, [[Colombia]] may be regarded as the most prolific issuer, followed by [[Mexico]], followed by [[Peru]]. Bolivia, [[Chile]] and [[Guatemala]] are minor sources. This type was minted 1778-88 and is rare.<br /> <br /> ''Recorded mintage:'' unknown. <br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' 13.53 g, .901 fine gold, .393 troy oz AGW; this specimen: 13.42 grams, 30.20 mm diameter. <br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' [[Spanish and Spanish colonial coins listed by Cayón number|Cayón-12662]], KM 58, Fr-2. <br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * &lt;sup&gt;[1]&lt;/sup&gt;Kraljevich, John, John Pack, Elizabeth O.
