    Nice looking piece can you capture a zoom-in of the overdate?

    You captured a very tough date to find and in certitified AU. The overdate is added bonus.

    Very nice orignal looking coin, I like it. Job well done.

    I remember at the Pittman sale Dave Akers saying something to the effect that one of the craziest, most futile, mind-numbing things a person could collect would be Cap and Rays 8 Reales by date-mint-assayer. Bidask, I suggest that you take that as a personal challenge! image

    Hmm... Dunigan, maybe? I know there are quite a few collectors that are trying to at least do a full date-assayer run for an individual mint, but not the whole enchilada.

    You would have to really like Cap and Rays 8 Reales to go for the whole enchilada.
    And who knows how big that enchilada really is?
    Now I'm hungry...

    Hey @bidask, this link goes to the "my account" page of your PCGS account, and is not visible to anyone but you (and for good reasons!). I would live to see what you were trying to show us here.
