Can somebody please confirm me that this is a Mexican 8 reales(piece of 8) of 1820?
What is it's value?
More information is welcome.

Thanks, it was indeed found at a shipwreck but we don't know the name yet.ivan salis said:by it markings -- supposed to be a --- 1820 spanish 8 reales (8 R) --- mexico mint mark (M with small "o") -- assayers are J - I
prices can vary widely from plain silver melt value to a highly interested collector -- documented shipwreck coins can be worth much more than a land found one. -- land found dug vs non dug also plays a factor -- bottom line --its worth as little as you will let it go for and as much buyer will pay for it --once those two "ends" meet --thats what its worth --right then / right there at that moment in time. --
