I think he was just saying that it was a coin of the Spanish Empire when he said it was a &#039;Spanish 2 reales&#039; and not going into specific New World mints or anything more specific than that. Also, <b>Irina</b>, I think he mentioned Gibraltar only because (and I think you know this bit of info already <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) the Pillars of Hercules are sometimes used to symbolize the passing through the straits of Gibraltar to the open ocean. </p><p>Sorry for the confusion, I hope you are no longer &#039;lost&#039; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Many of us at Cointalk have different native languages and different places where we grew up, so that can make things a little confusing at times here, but in the end, things are usually sorted out and understood by all.
