    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Nice addition, MLC! While the most common date of the Mexico Mint Carlos IV bust series - this coin is anything but common. MS 64 is the highest grade currently across all of the Mexico portrait series (1772-1821) and the eye appeal is definitely all there. NGC has quite a few more 64's and even a 65, but when it comes to grading this series - PCGS is much stricter.

    Because it was authorized by the US government to circulate as legal tender in the US until 1857.

    There were definitely more 8 Reales circulating in the early days of this nation than actual US silver dollars.



    In fact, if George Washington really did throw a "silver dollar" across Potomac in his younger days, it would have been an 8 Reales, since the first US silver dollar was not minted until 5 years prior to Washington's death.
