There is one historically significant silver coin that was my dream coin I couldn't hope to get. An iconic coin was the model and standard for the US Dollar enshrined in the US Constitution.
The very coin that epitomized popular culture in pirate lore in Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island.
That dream was fulfilled last Christmas HERE.

Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present my 1765 Spanish Colonial 'Pieces of Eight' 8 Reales.

1765 Colonial Mexico Carlos III 8 Reales

Obverse; Crowned Coat of Arms. Inscription CAROLVS · III · D · G · HISPAN · ET IND · REX, FM, 8 Translation; Carlos the third by the grace of God King of Spain and the Indies, FM, 8 Diameter 39mm, Thickness 2.6mm Weight 27.05g, 0.917 Silver

1765 Colonial Mexico Carlos III 8 Reales

Reverse; Crowned Hemispheres between crowned pillars, upon the waves. Inscription; VTRAQUE VNUM, PLUS VLTR, Mo, 1765, Mo. Translation; Both as One, Further Beyond.

As a parting gift from my late Roommate to remember her by.
