Spanish Treasure Coin -1 Reale
- Description
Spanish Silver Treasure Coin,1 Reale, Sterling Silver Pendant. Circa 1550-1650. Certificate of Authenticity.
These historic coins are known to collectors as “cobs”. The term "cob" is suggested, by many references, to come from the Spanish phrase "cabo de barra", or "end of the bar." Although full details are rarely clear, in part due to the ragged shape of the coin, the front features a cross, in some form, ranging from plain, to a “Jerusalem Cross”, with bars on the end.The reverse depicts the crest of either the Hapsburgs or the Bourbons, powerful European families who ruled in Spain.

Awesome store and staff! I have been buying jewelry from them since 1975. They have a fabulous selection and really great prices. Their sealife selection is the best around. I love to peek into their Estate cases when I visit. I always find a treasure to bring home.

Really nice selection of jewelry, lots of sea-themed pieces. Julie helped me get a lovely larimar piece and aquamarine ring. Wanted to get more but couldn’t. Next time!

The Cedar Chest carries very beautiful, unique jewelry of the highest quality. I have made many purchases over the years, both in the store and online, and I've always been more than happy with the pieces I've chosen. My most recent purchase was online. I trust them completely. I ordered a medium size rose-gold periwinkle earring and pendant set with a diamond in the centers. They are so beautiful. I want to wear them always! Shelley handled my order with care. She was wonderful. Thanks again, Shelley!
