1818 Lima Peru 2 Reales Silver Coin – Ferdinand VII – Spanish Colonial

$100.00
Own a piece of Spanish colonial history with this evocative piece of early 19th century Spanish Colonial silver — a 2 Reales struck in Peru under King Ferdinand VII, dating to the turbulent years of imperial decline and independence movements in South America. Hand-struck in the Lima mint, this coin carries the unmistakable authority of Spanish colonial coinage: bold legends, crowned arms, and the enduring weight of nearly 300 years of New World silver production. Obverse: Bust of the king, legends and date clearly visible, showing the character of its long circulation. Reverse: Shield within pillars, with the assayer initials FF and clear lettering; crown above pillars shows gentle wear consistent with age. Condition: Damage. Very strong details, but solder on perimeters.
