Cool find....what is it?

 

[Almy]

A beauty! Two reales? I see it was minted in Mexico. It's less worn than the few I have found. They were used for silver coins around the British North American colonies because of a coin shortage, but I have found only a very few among lots of coppers from the same era.

That, my friend, is a winner all day long! Great coin! Congrats!

Cool find....what is it?

It's a 1789 silver Carlos III Spanish half Reale from the Mexico City mint. It's 1/16 of a Piece of 8, enough money to buy a flagon of rum back in its time.
