I have quite a few ugly ones!

Yeah, but it was the 8 reale I was thinking of...bitter sweet!


I've had it so long I don't really think too bad or what if, anymore. It's crossed off the list and quite honestly there's a whole lot of other stuff I'd rather find than a better 8 reale.

Aahh, this talk of cartwheels, Spanish silver, bittersweet is right.
making my mouth water.
Still searching for my first spanish ::)
I looked at some better 'fishscales' online, does the leaf pattern give them this knickname?, they don't resemble scales to me :dontknow:
Thanks for posting these! :thumbsup:

My ugly and oldest silver dug in 1999 at a church. Unfortunately
it was buried 3 inches where they decided to burn a pile of wood,
scrap, etc. when they rebuilt it in 1906

1809 - 1836 Capped Bust Half Dollar :(
