This specimen was lot 72085 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, November 2022), where it sold for $1,440. The catalog description[1] noted, "PERU. 4 Reales, 1765-LM. Lima Mint; Assayers Joseph Rodriguez de Carrasa & Manuel de Iglesia Abarca (J M). Charles III. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, AU Details. This 4 Reales piece has lost much of its original finishing due to the noted cleaning. Nonetheless, the coin's legends and devices remain satisfyingly crisp. This example presents handsomely overall. From the Pat Johnson Collection." This specimen is one of a series struck 1760-72 during the reign of Charles III (1759-88). As a class, pillar coinage of Peru is much less plentiful than that of Mexico, though it is more available than the remaining mints.
