Clump of three Mexico City, Mexico, cobs, two 8R and one 4R, probably Philip IV, assayers not visible, in coral concretion (as found). 83.03 grams total. A very solid clump with what appear to be well-preserved coins (rare for this wreck), with the 4R sandwiched between the two 8R, mostly covered in white-gray-brown coral except for about half the cross side on the "top" coin, a compact but impressive display. Recovered from: Maravillas, sunk in 1656 off Grand Bahama Island.
