jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 12/18/2022 4:25 pm I believe that is the Madrid Mint Mark, not Mexico City Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24977 Posts	Posted 12/18/2022 4:45 pm Definitely a Madrid MM, not Mexico City. Also, it looks more like a 1/2 escudo than a 2 escudo. 1/2 escudo: https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide...duid-1516121 2 escudo: https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide...duid-1516543 Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24977 Posts	Posted 12/18/2022 5:13 pm I would be happy to have one in my collection. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 12/18/2022 5:36 pm Small wonder that you wished to share the images. Every collector would like to have a coin like this in their collection. Report this Post to the Staff

realeswatcher Pillar of the Community United States 1962 Posts	Posted 12/19/2022 12:59 am Nice little typical grade peninsular 1/2 escudo. This whole thread should delete itself and try again... or maybe not. Perhaps it's educational? Was this in fact just meant to see if we're paying attention? Do we all REALLY just live in the simulation? Report this Post to the Staff
