| Shield
type 2 escudos, Bogotá Columbia, Philip IV, assayer A, date (163)6.
Beautifully struck full cross with the bottom of the 6 of the
date (163)6 visible, positively attributing the coin to assayer
A. The mintmark NR
for "Nuevo Reino de Granada," the Spanish Colonial
region that included the city of Bogotá, is found to the left
of the shield along with the assayer mark A for
"Anuncibay." Since the shield is offset to the
left on this coin, both marks were struck off the planchet and
are thus missing. This coin is one of many high grade
Bogotá 2 escudos recovered from the "Mesuno Hoard" in
1935. El Mesuno, a location on the Magadalena River in
Columbia, was the site of the 1636 sinking of a small vessel
carrying gold to the port of Cartagena. This is a
beautiful New World coin in almost uncirculated condition.
Supplied with a
New World Treasures photo type certificate of authenticity. |

type 2 escudos, recovered from the wreck of the Spanish

the Florida Keys on September 6, 1622 and were salvaged by Mel
Fisher and his company, Treasure Salvors Inc. Santa
Margarita coins are rare in comparison to those from the
Atocha and gold coins from either wreck are extremely rare
finds, particularly dated examples like this that display a
full 1622 date. Supplied with the
original certificate of authenticity,
a Mel Fisher's Treasure Sales
Appraisal
and a booklet "Shipwrecks and Their Coins: Volume
1 -
1622 Spanish Treasure Fleet" that provides details about the
