Re: Help IDing....Thanks

2 reale, Potosi mint, looks to me like assayer VR, Pedro de Villar, 1679-1684

Wish I could find a cob down my way....

Thanks Stan....Prior to this coin the oldest one that came out of this site was a 1817 Large Cent and the oldest coin I ever found was a 1770s Half Real. I'm very happy with this find.

Does anyone know what something like this is worth?? I would not sell it but I'm just curious.

Thanks

Probably about $25. You can search completed auctions on Ebay.
