Historic and rare Spanish Colonial 8 Reale silver cob from 1621-1630 minted in Mexico City.  These early 8 Reale shipwreck coins don't come to the market often.  Graded and guaranteed genuine by NGC.  Oh the stories this coin could tell about everyday life and transactions in Colonial Spain and America!  Great preservation for sitting on the seafloor for 390 years.
The Spice Islands are a small group of islands NE of Indonesia.  An unknown ship is presumed to have sunk circa 1630 leaving behind several chests of 8 Reale coins minted in Mexico City and Potosi, Bolivia during the reign of King Philip IV of Spain. This is a very good example given the effects saltwater has on silver for almost 4 centuries.  How many different pockets and pouches did this coin travel in?  Actual coin you will receive.  Zero problems guaranteed.  Write for a multi-coin discount.  Trust this Long Time eBay Coin Seller -- over 25 years on eBay.
