Todays pickups on eBay. guess everyone was having a day off

[dooly]

Hi all been hunting again today and seemed to have little or no competition for a change.

 

all the photos are the sellers and the coins could be well different when i get them in the hand. and at least one will be getting sent for conservation if it is up to grade when i receive it

 

The last coin is a bit of a test for you to identify the seller had it wrongly listed and i picked it up for as song !!

 

 

As usual feel free to comment/ Grade/ attribute etc

[rrantique]

Mexico City 1 re ales.

[dooly]

Guess we are going to have to start helping out .. it is a 1 real hence the 1R on the obverse.. any new guesses

[coinman1794]

I think this is a 1/2 real. It would grade AG3 to G6 (if not for the hits), depending on how they veiw the weak rims, which are probably soft from striking issues.

This is a "new plate" coin minted in Spain. New plate refers to the 20% reduction in the value of reals minted in Spain in relation to the reales minted in colonial Spanish America. This variety of coin was frequently called a "head" real in the British colonies to distinguish it from the more valuable "portrait or modified pillar" real minted in the Americas. The more valuable American coin included the modified pillar reverse with the crowned Spanish arms while the Spanish new plate coin displayed only the crowned Spanish arms.

 

On the reverse to the left of the crowned Spanish arms is an R1 for the denomination Real 1. The "NG" I think is where the coin was minted, and the "M" is the assayers inital.
