Small, coin-like "blob" of cut gold pieces ("oro corriente") melted together and encrusted, with 3 partial Charles I tax stamps (crowned CA inside circular border), 36.6 grams. Roughly 1-1/4" x 7/8" x 3/8". A strange and fascinating piece that appears to be several small "drips" of gold melted together and then stamped 3 times, with big patch of dark encrustation on one side and small bits of white here and there, very coin-like in size and weight but otherwise more like a natural nugget in appearance.
