[QUOTE="rick, post: 66119, member: 1235"]Hello. sounds like it's an 8 reales from mexico, minted under the spanish crown. the M with the o above it is the mint mark for mexico. 1776 is obviously a popular year, but it's not a terribly rare year for this type of coin. The 8 reales in this date is special to some people, because the Reale was generally accepted currency at the time, in the united states. The pic will help with any sort of value, but as with all things, the value given here is more or less a guess based on information from resources, and general experience (in other words mileage may vary). The Reale issues are my favorite, so I look forward to seeing your images. By the way - Welcome to the Forum![/QUOTE]
