^Lot 2108 PERU, Lima, pillar ½ real, Ferdinand VI, 1754 JD, ex-O'Brien.

PERU, Lima, pillar ½ real, Ferdinand VI, 1754 JD, ex-O'Brien. Yonaka-L05.54; KM-51; Cal-53. 1.63 grams. This is probably the scarce "dotted mintmark" die, even though the dot is too weak to be discerned, as is also the crossbar inside the M of the mintmark (which Gilboy called normal M). VF with a few old marks in the richly toned fields. Pedigreed to the John O'Brien Collection, with his tag.
