<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 86336, member: 669&quot;]The 19th Century silver 8 reales, as well as the 19th and early 20th Century silver peso and 2 peso coins with the eagle/snake obverse and the Liberty Cap with rays reverse listed in Krause all have a legend with the date, denomination, mint mark and other information around the outside bottom of the reverse, which this one doesn&#039;t seem to have room for.</p><p><br /></p><p>With one exception the illustrations of copper/bronze pattern coins of that approximate size and design shown in the 19th Century Krause also have that legend.</p><p><br /></p><p>The exeception is shown as PN50, an 1834 copper 8 reales, and Pn52, an 1835 copper 4 escuedos.&nbsp; (A reeded edge silver 8 reales is listed under the same illustration as Pn51.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not inclined to believe you found either of those patterns in a dealer&#039;s junk box as Pn50 carries a Krause market value of $3,500, and Pn52 is too rare to have a price![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
