[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 7490, member: 669"]I've never heard of any coins minted in North America before the Mexico City Mint started producing Spanish gold and silver Reales in the early 17th Century or possibly the very late 16th. The earliest dated coins listed in Krause, 17th Century 2d Ed., are 1607 1, 2, 4 and 8 Reales, but undated Phillip III examples of all four types are listed, which could push the first minting date back as far as the beginning of his reign in 1589.[/QUOTE]
