Excellent score on the half reale and it's in beautiful condition

[novafinder]

Superb find! Aisle I could find one!

[RiverRat3]

Great find! I have yet to find a Spanish coin.

Looks like a 1R to me, not a 1/2 R. Diameter of 1/2 R is 18mm; diameter of 1R is 20. Also coin legend appears to read 1R.

Coin is certainly Spanish, but may not be from Spain; certainly not Mexico which would have assayer 'FF', not "MI". Unfortunately, I can't read the mintmark.

thanks for the info, i took another pic of what i think the mintmart would be hopefully its good enough for you to see and let me know more
the coin is bigger than a dime i was hoping it was a 1

Nice silver coin so i have 3 silver coins as your coin.

[John Silvered]

My vote is for half reale. VERY cool find. Congrats!

[Mackaydon]

With the better pics, the assayer now might be read as "MJ". As such, "MJ" was the assayer at the Lima, Peru mint in 1779 when 1R coins were produced.

I believe the mint mark is NR -- the mint is Bogota.
The NR stands for 'nuevo reino' (New Kingdom) as the area was once called.
Much better pics, thx.

awesome find, looks to be a 1 real. I'm fairly certainly it's "real" and not "reale." If there was an "e" on the end, it'd then be pronounced -ree-al-ey, but it's a ree-al.
