This specimen was lot 644 in Sedwick Treasure Auction 28 (Winter Park, FL, November 2020), where it sold for $1,920. The catalog description[1] noted, "Potosi, Bolivia, cob 1 real Royal (galano), 1733E, retrograde E to right of cross, extremely rare, NGC XF details / holed. Typically thick, round, even, but small-diameter flan with perfectly centered cross showing a clearly retrograde assayer E to left, the pillars side slightly off-center but with bold E in proper rotation at top-right, both visible assayers possibly punched over YA (the pillars side probably a die-match with the single-known YA example from the "Americas" sale), in any case unlisted and most likely unique, with lovely old toning but inevitable hole near top of cross / top of right pillar. Pedigreed to the Heritage auction of January 2008 (lot #50309)." The SCWC lists "royals" of this type for 1733-35, 1739, 1741, 1745-47. Assayer YA is also recorded for the year.
