Description: This 1/2 Real was minted by the Spanish crown in 1783, stowed on the El Cazador brig and bound for the Spanish New Orleans colony to bring stability to a faltering economy. Unfortunately like countless other Reales, this coin was lost in the “wreck that changed the world.” This specific coin endured over 200 years of salt water damage which should have otherwise destroyed the coin details and disfigured its shape. This 1/2 Real was authenticated by PCGS and encapsulated in a PCGS holder. The label identifies this phenomenal piece as Prime Select. This coin and its condition is highly desirable by collectors of shipwreck coins, collectors of Spanish Reales, and collectors of early American and Spanish American historical coins. It is a beautiful piece with intricate details and a stunning design. The coin is a true treasure and a piece of history that will be cherished for years to come.
