<p>[QUOTE="Theoderic, post: 4952099, member: 110471"]I agree with others that these are not Spanish wreck coins and that, since the seller has still not shipped or even replied two weeks after payment receipt, you should file a complaint with eBay and get your money back through PayPal. If you are specifically interested in shipwreck coinage and/or Spanish colonial and Latin American coins in general I can recommend the dealer/auction house of Daniel Frank Sedwick. They have their own very informative website, run several well-attended auctions a year, and even sell less expensive items directly on eBay. They also authored "The Practical Book of Cobs" which is in its 4th (2007) edition and perhaps the best introduction, at least in English, to Spanish colonial coins. It's written in a straight forward fashion and contains a wealth of information on 16th-18th century types, styles, mints, and assayers. It also includes a gazetteer of over 50 known Spanish wrecks with details on their discovery/recovery and known or suspected contents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
