A lot of cool factor in a 200+ year big piece of silver: General Andrew Jackson invades Spanish Florida in March of 1818 without the permission of the president or congress and effectively takes Florida for America.

This average circulated Eight Reale (Piece of Eight) would remain legal tender in the United States for another 40 years.

Nice even uncleaned example, a couple of larger but aged scratches obverse around 7:00.

Asking $40 plus $3 shipping, paypal:
