Hey mateys - new pirate stuff in the mail

Arrrrrrrr
Arrrrrrrr

A 1705Y Potosi 1R from a dealer in NYC who had marked it as 1500's Mexico. Very light weight at 2.30 grams, but it shows some wear. Not much lettering, other than one clear date and assayer mark. Reverse rotation is about 90 degrees, or 270 degrees, depending on which direction you count from.

All the sloppy workmanship you'd expect from the zombies working at Potosi mint.
