[QUOTE="AussieCollector, post: 8370020, member: 81093"]Hi all Super pleased to share that I finally got my Charles-Joanna Reales. I have been collecting age of sail Spanish coins for some time, and have always had a Charles-Joanna coin on the want list (early or late, it didn't matter), but never quite found the right coin, at the right price, at the right time. However, I finally managed to secure one, which I am very pleased with: [ATTACH=full]1485327[/ATTACH] [B]4 Reales[/B] Mexico City, Mexico Charles-Joanna, "Late Series". Assayer G to right, mintmark M to left (M-G). King's name as CHAROLVS. Nesmith-50f type. 13.57 grams. Description: Well struck on a broad flan with complete legends, an early issue from this assayer with the king's name as CHAROLVS, pillars-side legend ending in a trefoil or flower, which is very rare and only from this assayer, probably from the "Golden Fleece wreck" (ca. 1550). Please feel free to share your Reales or any Spanish coin from the age of sail. Cheers AC[/QUOTE]
