This is one of a series struck 1767-70 during the reign of Charles III (1759-88). Gilboy[1] lists the date as uncommon with two varieties recorded.
The pillar one real is somewhat scarce although all dates are available. Harris[2] lists the Charles III pillar two reales in order of abundance: Mexico, Potosi, Lima, Guatemala (scarce). Specimens in high grade are very rare. In 1771, milled coinage was suspended at the Potosi mint in favor of the resumption of cob production. The mintmaster was rebuked for this and forced to return to milling coins in 1773 with the introduction of portrait coinage. Mexican numismatists hotly debate which side of the coin constitutes the obverse. Gilboy[1] depicts the shield side as the obverse as that side bears the king's name. However, auction catalogs and dealer listings more frequently use the pillars and globes side as the obverse, as that side bears the date.
