Spanish gold & silver


Recommended Posts

I just ordered me a 4 reale silver cob from Sedwicks. This is half the value of a piece of 8 (8 reales). They specialize in Colonial coinage of Spanish America. Their prices are reasonable, so anyone can own a piece of history. Also, they have a section on Cob & shipwreck history-worth reading.

Together we shall sail the sea, best friends we'll always be. But, if we should ever disagree, the hell with you, and hurray for me.

A piece of eight is actually an eigth of a Spanish real (large silver coin) not 8 reals. (large silver coins) so I notunderstanding the monatary value of your coinage. :lol: But I congratulate you nonetheless! :)
