An old "piece of 8," these were spend in the colonies before we had our own currency. Probably in the $125-150 range.
📋 Item Submitted
Mexico 8 reals 1805. The major details are clear and fine lines are distinct. There is light wear on highest design points but no major scratches or damage. I received the coin years ago from my father, an avid collector. I’m unsure where he obtained it originally.
