<p>[QUOTE=&quot;vdbpenny1995, post: 26189115, member: 32122&quot;]I recently acquired this Potosi 8 Reales in a 14k bezel and have a couple questions. Is it even possible to get an exact date of this coin with the wear thats shown? Also, do you think this could be a Mel Fisher Atocha coin? I can&#039;t tell if the wear/erosion on the coin matches a coin thats been underwater for hundreds of years but what makes me think it could be one is that this is the exact same style bezel as other Mel Fisher Atocha 8 reale coins I&#039;ve seen and more interestingly the AR hallmark that is inside the bezel. From what I&#039;ve seen is many of the original big Atocha bars also bear a similar AR symbol and a couple other Atocha pieces I&#039;ve owned all made a point to have that AR symbol incorporated some how. Maybe this is just wishful thinking but would love to hear some other opinions. I&#039;d also be happy to provide any more information if needed </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1672095[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1672096[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1672097[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1672098[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1672099[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
