Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 06/06/2015 6:24 pm Ostensibly a 1614 4 reales struck in Mexico, but I have reservations as to its authenticity. Colligo ergo sum Edited by Lucky Cuss 06/06/2015 6:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Dagaz Valued Member Slovenia 459 Posts	Posted 06/07/2015 03:29 am I agree with Lucky Cuss ... The markings are correct (oMF) for the 1614, but it looks strange to me. Mainly because it 'just so happens', to have year, mint markings and denomination so clearly visable. It could happen, but ... Well it's a big 'but' :) Nontheless, I kind of like it as a pendant :) Report this Post to the Staff
PatAR Valued Member United States 262 Posts	Posted 06/07/2015 11:15 am Agreed. There appears to be extra metal deposited over certain devices. Some might argue that is due to corrosion in sea water, but that's not what this looks like to me. I suspect it is some form of reproduction made for the use as jewelry. As Dagaz mentioned, it seems well suited for use as a pendant. Report this Post to the Staff
MathieuMa Pillar of the Community France 1591 Posts	Posted 06/07/2015 12:53 pm Looks like a jewelry reproduction to me as well. Some details are way too smooth (even for salvaged), too much bubbles (for salfaged as well). Report this Post to the Staff
