Large clump of over a dozen Spanish colonial bust 8 reales in matrix. 489 grams, about 4". Basically a thick chunk of orange rock (impacted mud) with a fanned stack of coins sprouting from its top, the coins all cocooned in tan encrustation but evidently solid, also lightly draped with thin white worm-tubes. From the Cazador, sunk in 1784 off New Orleans
