Recently I have had some coin buddies inquire about some cap and rayes 8 reales.

Although I am not actively collecting I thought I would repost this registry...it has been awhile.

I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    Dan, happy to see you posting! You've taken this collection amazingly far - both in scale and quality. Any musings on particular mints, date/varieties, or the overall pursuit of this massive undertaking?

    Yes

    For this particular mint registry , which is complete per PCGS ….i don’t know why they did not include Hermosillo ??

    Probably just an oversight. I have emailed NGC recommending a few changes on a set before and they implemented them... I bet PCGS would fix this.

    Absolute incredible registry, I didn't realize an MS63 EoMo was a thing!

    If an incredible auction of c&R 8’s was announced tomorrow, would you be tempted to play?
