America's First Silver Coins
Every denomination of colonial coinage that inspired our national currency...
Recognized as our nation’s first silver dollar, the magnificent 8-reales was just one of five silver coins that were the forerunners of U.S. coins. Now, more than 200 years after they became the mainstay of early American commerce, the complete collection is available exclusively from PCS Stamps & Coins. It includes all five Spanish silver coins, struck in the New World between the American Revolutionary era and the early 1800’s: the 8-reales coin that inspired the U.S. silver dollar, plus the 4-reales half-dollar, 2-reales quarter-dollar and the rarely seen real and half-real.
Each of these coins:
• Was struck in 90.3% pure silver.
• Has been out of circulation for more than 190 years.
• Was U.S. legal tender until 1857.
• Is rapidly vanishing and can be found only in extremely limited quantities.
• Is exceptionally popular among collectors and historians alike.
The collection also includes a Display Chest and Collector’s Guide, yours at no extra charge.
