Pirate Coin Sunken Treasure Spanish Piece of Eight Authentic cob 1/2R SS Pendant

Description: Sunken Treasure! Salvaged condition. The authentic Spanish silver piece of eight coin pendant pictured is the one you will receive. It was struck 1675 and it is set into a handcrafted sterling silver pendant bezel. Your purchase includes the Certificate of Authenticity, polishing cloth, velvet pouch and gift box.One side of the coin features a cross with castles and lions. The other side features the monogram of the king of Spain, Carlos II with "675" below for the year 1675.This coin was recovered from the "Rimac" river in Lima, Peru. The river was the transportation from the silver mines in the New World to the ocean where they were then loaded onto the treasure galleons to be sent back to the Old World. For a period of several hundred years, residents and sailors would toss in a coin for safe passage or good fortune. Over the centuries, the mud banks of the river have captured and preserved thousands of Spanish silver coins. This type of coin is unique in its shape and striking, therefore no two of these coins will ever be exactly the same . Yet, amazingly, for each denomination, the weight is almost exactly the same. They were hand-made, mostly by the indigenous Indians of the New World, cut from the end of a refined silver bar, then clipped, heated, and hand struck between two crudely made engraved dies. They were then filed to the exact requisite weight of silver, according to the denomination. They made them in denominations of 1/2, 1, 2, 4, and 8 Reales and they were called "Pieces of Eight" or Cob coins (meaning end of the bar). One side of the coin features a cross with castles and lions. The other side features the monogram of the king of Spain, Carlos II with "675" below for the year 1675.
