<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joe Campbell, post: 8054076, member: 89857&quot;]I buy a lot of stuff that I know nothing about....&nbsp; Today I picked up a small pile of foreign coins. Nothing too exciting normally but I added a coin that is labeled at least as a ship wrecked cob. I’ve never owner a cob, held a cob or even seen a cob so I thought what the heck.&nbsp; It’s definitely in rough shape and, weirdly enough, smells like dirt. </p><p><br /></p><p>I took it to a reputable Local coin store and the XRF analyzer said it was right around 90% silver which I take as a good sign. It weighs 19.8g which I think is a bad sign as an 8 real should be heavier and a 4 real should be lighter.&nbsp; For what it worth the LCS thought it was real (no pun intended) but this is outside his expertise. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have no idea what I’m looking at. Any opinions and thoughts are appreciated. </p><p><br /></p><p>thanks. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1395028[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395029[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395030[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395031[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395032[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395033[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395034[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1395035[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
