The shown specimen is one of a series struck 1760-72 during the reign of Charles III (1759-88). Yonaka reports the date as uncommon, as well as a variety with MA ligature on the M of the assayers' initials. 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.
Specification: 6.77 grams, 00.917 fine silver, 0.200 troy oz ASW.
