"The Quintessential Pirate" 8 reales "Piece of 8!"
This is where it all started, the epitome of the Black Spot Guild, the original, the Quintessential Pirate coin, the famous "piece of 8"!! Solid .999 fine silver. 27 grams, just like the originals. Or choose 31 grams (1 ounce) to easier keep track of your loot! As well as a slew of other options.
They are roughly 1.5", the size of a silver dollar, and all weigh either 27 or 31 grams. Just remember, these are hand poured, shaped, and struck. Each one will be quite different, in shape, thickness, size and in how much of the die actually transfers to the cob! So while some are fairly round, most are all kinds of shapes, may have small cracks on the edges, and due to them not being perfectly flat, the entire design will not show up on the silver. But that is exactly how they were back in the day, and exactly how they are supposed to be! If you want a nearly perfect one, buy the Royal /Galano; those I take extra care to make as round and flat as possible. They will show at least 95% of the design.
Want it bezeled or to have a silver loop thrown on in a hole, so it can be worn as a necklace?! Add whichever cob version you want here, then add the seperate loop or bezel product to your cart. If you order more than one cob, just let me know which one you want to have a loop or bezel, easy!
