    Description

    Great looking very early Philip IV (minted 1570-1630) 8-Reales Spanish Colonial Coin, "Spice Islands Shipwreck," Minted in Mexico City.
    Conserved, attributed and certified "genuine" by NGC.  More rare than the subsequent Philip V Spanish Reale coins and beyond.  Very nice quality early 8-Reales Spanish Colonial Coin (or "cob") from the Spice Islands Shipwreck -- ships with nice story card.  These coins were hand-hammered and not from a coin press (they weren't invented yet).  Therefore each coin is unique, rustic, and as pictured.  Actual coin you will receive.  Nice quality one ounce (approximately) silver coin that circulated through the America's and Europe for over 300 years.
    This is the coin called "Pieces of 8." These coins were cut into 8 "pieces" or "bits" to provide a smaller denomination.  The new US Mint struck a silver dollar in 1794 that approximated the Reale in weight and size.  Actual coin you will receive -- zero problems, guaranteed.  Write for volume discount.  Trust this Long Time eBay Coin Seller -- over 23 years on eBay.
