Flanders, Spanish Netherlands, portrait ducatoon, Philip IV, 1655. KM-50. 32.4 grams. Choice specimen (and unique provenance), with full inner details and bold full legends, somewhat silvery but virtually uncorroded and with spots of colorful toning. Found with a slave bracelet ("manila") and therefore probably from a slave ship in the Atlantic triangular trade between Africa and the British colonies. Recovered from: Unidentified mid-1600s wreck off Cape May, NJ
