Almost see a partial date !

Date would be in the circled area !!
 
IMO:
Top line reads L-1-R.
L= Lima mint
I= One real
R = Initial of Assayer
Date illegible.
Unfortunately, the R assayer initial is common to this period. The R may represent more than one assayer with the initial R. The 'R' exists on Lima 1R coins of 1685-1688, 1690-1691, 1695, 1699, 1706 and 1749-1751. If the end number is 6 or 8, it's from the period 1685-1688.

1st digit-tip of an "8" ... the last digit looks to be the tip of a "7", for a date of 1687 ... Lima assayer Miguel de Rojas Paramo, reign of Spanish King Charles II ... ( street name:"Chucky tha Deuce" ) ::)
 
Copngratulations on a great find! Thanks for showing it to us!
