Thanks, Brian but I am looking for Charles III pieces, mainly 8 reales. Charles IV and Ferdinand pieces just don’t excite me for whatever reason.
Also, 1/2’s & 1’s are too small for my taste so I guess I can’t be considered a true type collector.
oops, thought I read CIIII. My Fault!

What grades are you willing to acquire? I sent several off to Heritage ranging from VF30 to AU58. Most will end up in the weekly world auctions. I do have a few more CIII bust 8Rs I will part with soon.
Probably AU-MS, but it depends on the eye appeal.
AU-MS with great eye appeal describes @OriginalDan's collection.
He'll have to fight a few of us for those C3's if Dan ever decides to part with them

I've got some culls...
Low grade, but cheap.
1778-FM Mexico City 2R. Asking $19, but name your own price.
If that one ain't spooky or slick enough for ya ,
I've got a mixed lot of all four of the lower denominations (half-real, 1-real, 2-reales, and 4-reales) for 30 bucks OBO.
The 4-reales is Chuckie the Fourth, not Third. The 2R and 4R are Bolivian, from Potosí. The half-real is from Mexico City. The one-real is an undetermined slick, but attributable as Chuckie the Third.
LordM,
Not what I’m looking for but thanks.
I figured you might want something a bit nicer.
