On offer is a8 reales coin ofPhilip Vof Spain, 1740. Weight is 23.1g, diameter 38mm. Condition as seen, shows water damage and clearly from a shipwreck though exact wreck unknown.

Sorry about the increase in postage. This has come about for 3 reasons:- 1. Royal Mail has recently increased their charges, this has resulted in a particularly steep rise for international shipments; 2. Royal Mail now define small parcels as anything with a thickness of over 0.5cm, which means most coins now have to go at this rate if posted internationally; 3. Since last October have been charging sellers a 10% fee on postage charges. I have held my p&p prices for the last two years but can no longer afford to do so, so again, sorry.

Thanks for looking and good luck if you offer. Be sure to add me to yourfavorites list! Check out myother items!
