That is a beautiful '40-S!

 

Thanks Frank. I was thinking of sending that one in for a grade. What do you think. I couldnt get a clear picture of the reverse for some reason.

 

That one, if the reverse is as nice, should 66 -- easily!

 

This is one of my favorite coin purchases. I found a Mel Fisher store near where I live. He's the guy who discovered the resting place of the Atocia Spanish treasure ship. This particular 1/2 Reale was found at the wreck of the war ship El Cazador which sunk in 1784 alongside the famed Atocia. The coin is dated 1783 and is graded a 1. It's kind of neat owning such a storied piece of history.

Hello!
Are you ignoring my generous offer?

 

I'm working on three different country type set, that is Russia, Japan and Korea. I have just put together the Korean coin type set page - the rest will come along when I have the time.

Yes, the reverse is just as nice. I should just send it to NGC or PCGS and see what it comes back as. Im kind of curious.

Hello all,

New Poster here...but a long time lurker...here is one of my favorite coins in my collection.

I love the history these coins represent. To think back to what was happening in our country during these years.

Hope you enjoy seeing this.
