<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 3088016, member: 8959&quot;]A pretty coin with what appears to be original toning. Yes, it does have what looks like a faint &#039;B&#039; scratched on the field in front of the bust, but it is not obtrusive.</p><p>The price you mention is a fair price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Potosi continued to mint coins for the Spanish king Fernando VII until 1825. Alto Peru (present day Bolivia) with is mint at Potosi was the last major hold-out of the Spanish crown in the Americas. You coin was minted very close to the end of a very long period, almost 300 years, of Spanish dominion in Latin America.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin in my collection dated 1824 was the last major issue struck by the Spanish crown in the neighbouring Viceroyalty of Peru at the capital, Lima.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]778733[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]778734[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
