Lovely example of this early 2 reales cob from the colony of Mexico. Nice strike and details for the grade. Tougher Carlos & Johanna type. Due to the condition it is possible that this is a shipwreck piece, possibly from the Golden Fleece wreck. Coins of this type circulated in the American colonies. This coin would have been U.S. legal tender until 1857.
