Owner Comments:
1773 is the first year of the Charles III portrait design minted in silver from Potosi, Bolivia. This was a raw coin acquired in my first experience with a Spanish auction, via internet, of course. From the June 2010 Cayón Subastas, Madrid, Spain. Cy12015. Golpecito en grafila del rev (small bagmarks on reverse design). MBC+
