Please Note: This is an authentic Spanish Piece of Eight Treasure Coin, and you will receive the exact pendant in the photographs and description.
When we think of the treasure coins of pirate lore, the silver Spanish colonial cob coins of Central and South America immediately come to mind. Next time you read about the great pirates of long ago, Blackbeard (Edward Teach), Henry Morgan, John Rackham (Calico Jack), Mary Read, Anne Bonny and many others, these were the coins that drove their raiding and pillaging of land and sea! Even the great, and often maligned, “pirate hunter” Captain William Kidd would have used these coins to purchase rum and wine for his crew.
Crudely shaped and hand-hammered, these silver pieces of history are some of the most intriguing and beautiful coins ever minted. And because each coin was minted by hand, they are one of a kind. Unlike a machine minted coin, it is impossible for anyone else to posses a coin exactly like yours!
Robert's Notes: Perfect pendant size. This cob coin is in such amazing condition that I mounted it in regal 18kt gold. Most Spanish reale cobs date to the 1600s and later. But these coins were minted in the late 1500s, which makes them highly desirable. Stunning condition for its age with a highly desirable cross and great shield detail. Virtually uncirculated! Very nice "oM" Mexico City mint mark, and "O" assayer's initials. Only about 7% of the Mexico City mint coins were 1 reales at this time. 75% of the coins minted were the large 8 reales.
