Authentic Spanish-Colonial Half-Real Silver Shipwreck Cob Coin in Gold Bezel
Authentic Half-Real (1/2 Real denomination) Spanish-Colonial Era Silver Cob Coin, mounted in custom made 10k yellow gold bezel setting with silver prongs/accent components, to be worn as a pendant. The rope-shaped (twisted) wire prongs are silver (925), otherwise the bezel is solid 10k yellow gold. The pendant is open on both sides, making it reversible, if desired. The gross weight of the entire pendant is 1.94 grams, approximately. The cross is still visible though very worn. Coin is showing extreme wear/corrosion consistent with prolonged exposure to harsh saltwater conditions, also known as the "shipwreck effect". No provenance/recovery information is know. Apart from that this coin (almost a fragment, truly) was sea-salvaged, but that is the extent of the know information about it.

Metal purity is checked before sale, however the combinations of metals and materials used in creating the settings can sometimes result in a reading that differs slightly from the one stated, likewise any coins that are themselves very old were also known to have a small margin of metal purity +/. Thank you for your interest and please let me know if you have any questions!
