Hammer Price:
£60

Mexico, Philip V, Pillar Dollar, 1743 MF (KM 103). Very fine or better, surface a little pitted and with some encrustation at margins and elsewhere, sea salvage, but not unpleasing for a coin from a wreck (£60-80)

Struck, as some 8-Reales of this period are without the more usual toothed border.
