Owner Comments:
This was my first Charles III portrait 8 reales from the Guatemala City mint. It has the NG mint mark for Nueva Guatemala. This series is not rare but examples do not appear at auction very often. It's from the June 2010 Cayón Subastas, Madrid, Spain. Cy12118. Acuñación floja (weakly struck). MBC+/EBC-, algunos restos de brillo original en rev (some remnants of original luster on reverse)
