Sweeet coin. Congrats. Is that 1799 or 1700?
 
Now that is a great coin! Congrats on a beautiful piece of Spanish silver.
 
Nice Spanish!
 
Oh Yea, nice find, bet your ears were ringing
 
Spanish coins are so pretty !!!

CONGRATS ...NICE FIND !!

Nice one.
Can't wait for my ground to thaw.
 
In the reverse legend the monogram 'LIMAE' (afer REX) is the mintmark indicating the coin was produced at the mint in Lima, Peru.
The' I' and the' J' are the initials of the assayers, Ignacio Zenón Gélves and Juan Martínez de Roxas who worked together from 1787-1803.
