Worn Spanish Reale Coin Fragment – A Rare Shipwreck Treasure
This fragment of a Spanish Reale, minted as a Cob in Mexico, hails from the famous 1715 Plate Fleet of Nueva España, a fleet tragically wrecked by a hurricane along the Florida coastline in 1715.
Purchased by Wayne in 2001 at auctions in New York City while staying at the iconic Roosevelt Hotel, this artifact brings a piece of maritime history to collectors.

Weight: 0.27 grams
The silver fragment is broken, heavily worn, and unreadable, though the original coin would have displayed the Hapsburg Shield, a hallmark of Spanish colonial coinage.
Stored in a protective plastic container for safekeeping.
Additional Inclusions:
A photocopy of the 1715 Fleet summary, dated 2001.
A Certificate of Authenticity, complete with the item ID number (shown in the image).
