Stan... How many times have you reported fake coins to eBay, and they've done nothing about it?

Well, they (Ebay) don't answer back to you so there is no way to tell. Of course if the auction terminates, you would like to think you had something to do with it.

I'm something of a novice, but this one seems very nice.....

Of course, with 6 days left the price already seems to reflect that.

Pretty nice! The coin is from Potosi, not Lima like the ad says. Assayer B (Juan de Ballesteros Narvaez) served several terms in his long career (1577-1615), but I believe this to be one of the earlier coins. One of the main features for identifying sub-types, the number of "fleurs-dis-lis" in the shield, is unfortunately double struck on this coin and not legible.

It should be noted that the diameter of this coin (reported at 42mm) makes it nearly like the 44mm coins termed in Menzel's book as "great module" coins.

It will be interesting to track this auction. Thanks Ted for calling attention to it.

Hello Stan

No, for the moment, I haven't found more spanish coins because at the place in the water where I have found them the level of sand is very high.
But I hope to found other coins after a very big storm.I am patient...

Hi Jerome. Thanks for the update and keep us posted. Are your recoveries being made off the French coast? I hope a big storm blows your way! :icon_thumleft:

Spreading the "end-of-the-bar" myth....Seller needs to read this thread....
http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,308454.0.html

Also, a gold coin from Toldeo is not colonial like Mexico, Lima, or Bogota. Spanish gold is generally worth much less than true colonial, so you see sellers trying to make this association all the time....
