Description: This offer is for one Chunky 1700 - 1773 Spanish Colonial Silver Cut 8 Reales Hammered Treasure Cob Coin. This awesome early silver coin was minted in Potosi, Bolivia and directly shows the method of making change or theft by clipping. This chunky silver treasure cob clearly shows the 8 denomination on it but weighs 16.02 grams. That is heavier than a 4 Reales which would be 13.5 grams but lighter than an 8 Reales which would be 27 grams. The thick edges of this cob are smooth and straight also adding evidence of clipping during colonial times. Interesting to note that their cob coinage was discontinued and changed to round milled coinage with reeded or decorated edges in the late 1760's - 70's to try and eliminate the clipping of their coins. This Attractive and very interesting Treasure cob is Guaranteed to be 100% Authentic. Some pictures may appear darker than actual coin due to lighting. The picture showing the measurement with ruler shows numbers in MM / CM. Weight is in Grams. If purchasing multiple items, please reach out to us prior to payment so we can insure combined shipping.
