This specimen was lot 3587 in Steve Album Auction 53 (Santa Rosa, CA, September 2025), where it sold for $110. The catalog description[1] noted, "[[Peru|PERU]]: Fernando VII, 1808-1822, AR 4 reales, 1816-LIMAE, assayer JP, some obverse hairlines, softly struck centers, struck through threads on obverse, some luster, XF." This specimen is one of a series struck 1811-21 during the reign of Ferdinand VII (1808-33). As a class, colonial coinage of Peru is much less plentiful than that of Mexico, tho it is more available than the remaining mints. However, Harris[2] noted finding about one-fourth as many Peruvian four reales of Charles IV as that of Mexico, so it is safe to say that this type is scarce. Assayer "JP" is noted for the years 1803-23.
