GUATEMALA, Guatemala City, cob 8 reales, 1740 J. S-G1; Cal-1246; KM-6; JP-8R8c. 25.76 grams. Thick and sharply rectangular flan with full and bold date below choice full waves that indicate at least an XF grade despite some very light surface pitting, bold *8* to right of bold shield, some peripheral flatness, no toning, somewhat scarce as a clean date since this year's mintage was shared with two different overdates. Pedigreed to the Darby Collection of Guatemala Silver Cobs.
