Hi, Hammersoft, thanks for your work on this article. Have you used Lane, Kris (2017-05-15). "From Corrupt to Criminal: Reflections on the Great Potosi Mint Fraud of 1649". In Rosenmüller, Christoph (ed.). Corruption in the Iberian Empires: Greed, Custom, and Colonial Networks. University of New Mexico Press. pp. 33–56. ISBN 978-0-8263-5826-4.? It seems to have a lot of information, and I can access the whole chapter for free on google books-- you probably can too? Cheers, Eddie891 Talk Work 18:19, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'll have a look and build on what I can find there. It's a curious subject. I know a professor whose entire professional life has been topics South America. He's even been to Potosi. I asked him one day about this subject, whether he knew anything about it, and had any advice to give on possible sources. He had no knowledge of it whatsoever. I was stunned. Thanks for finding this! --Hammersoft (talk) 18:48, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
