Lot of 5 silver cobs from 1600s wrecks, as follows: Seville 2R "Rill Cove wreck" (1618); Mexico 4R "Lucayan Beach wreck" (1628); Potosi 8R Consolacion (1681); Potosi 8R 1681 Fleet off Panama (1681); and Potosi 1R Joanna (1682). 40.04 grams total. All moderately to heavily corroded but with clear details, each coin fairly typical for its respective wreck (except for the Panama wreck, which does not have a typical look, the coin dated 1659 and quite pitted), and the "Lucayan Beach wreck" 4R with bold full oMD. Pedigreed to the Charles Eidel collection, with original but generic certificates (the Consolacion referred to as "Santa Cruz").
