$2,200 Cartagena, Colombia, cob 2 reales, Philip III

Cartagena, Colombia, cob two reales, Philip III (posthumous), no assayer, mintmark SF to left (1622), Grade 1, from the Atocha (1622), extremely rare. Restrepo-M4.1. 6.six grams. Very solid coin for salvage (no corrosion, AU information, toned), with choice full (well-detailed) shield and SF (perched very high, as if to leave room for an assayer-mark below it that never materialized), the cross-lions-castles also well-detailed but incomplete due to poor centering (with full [HISP]ANIARVM as a result), the date off the flan but this type only struck in 1 year, and probably only as a sort of pattern. We have sold only 1 other example (Auction #11), and that coin did not show the mintmark. From the Atocha (1622), with Fisher tag and certificate #94A-1622.Listing originally posted at http
