<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 470680, member: 8959&quot;]A very nice, historical (and valuable) coin!&nbsp; Thanks for sharing the coin and its history with us. In my opinion this type is one of the most appealing of all Spanish coinage.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Dos Mundos&quot; coinage from Guatemala is, as a type, scarcer than both Mexico and Lima. The style is also more crude, as you say. Your coin is actually quite well struck in comparison with others that i have seen. </p><p>Also, from what i have observed, the 2 and 4 reales are actually cruder in style than the 8 reales, and quite difficult to find without mutilation of some kind, (I have yet to find a suitable one without a hole for my collection).&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I am glad we seem to share an interest in Latin American Colonial coins! My own focus is Lima and Santiago mints.</p><p><br /></p><p>With regards,</p><p>Eduard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
