Super additions Silverskunk, GLB, Hondo and Dearborn ... ...close call on those Eagles, Dearborne! ...Hondo, the various finishes on that Tokelau 2 Dollars are mind-blowing...nice, low mintage, too... ...although off the flan, the date for this 8 reales is most likely 1619, due to the assayer (de Tapia, 1st term), castle & lions details, & the crown details ... got this from ebay, after looking at it for 5 months, seller offered me a bargain price, & I couldn't refuse ...

Excellent 8 Reales, Moniker!
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Thanks, Hondo ... these coins were made with more care than the later "cobs" that were hastily knocked out with less attention to detail ... this one has a decent amount of detail, obverse & reverse ...

thanks Bryan and MrWhiskers - it was a close call, I would think that another day in a USPS carrier vehicle it would have been 'label-less' and then undeliverable. But one would hope that they would maybe open it up to see if there was a address label on the inside.  and a very nice Bolivia coin.
