Colombia, Ferdinand VI, 2 Escudos, date off flan [1746-55], Nuevo Reino, assayer s, 6.71g (Cayón type 46; KM. 25). Good very fine but double-struck, rare £500-700

Despite the king’s name not being visible, the reign can be identified by the double tressure around the reverse cross. The obverse has turned a little over 90°, so the assayer’s initial can be seen at 12 o’clock when the majority of the shield is upright
