Description:
A nicely toned extremely fine or much better 1798 PTS PP Bolivian silver coin. This is the Carolus IIII 8 Reales depicting the bust of King Charles the third of Spain on the obverse. The obverse of this large, silver dollar size coin, has the legend "CAROLUS.IIII.DEI.GRATIA" surrounding the king's bust and the date 1798 below it. The reverse depicts the crowned arms of Spain between pillars with the legend "HESPANIA.ET IND.REX" followed by the mint mark as a monogrammed "PTS.8 R. P.P." all surrounding the arms.
