The shown specimen is one of a series struck 1760-72 during the reign of Charles III (1759-88). Gilboy[1] notes the date as scarce. There is only one reported variety, in which the mint anagram is dotted. As a class, pillar coinage of Peru is much less plentiful than that of Mexico, though it is more available than the remaining mints.
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.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
