Spanish Bust Peso & Pieces of 8 Coins

sold out!
With the conquest of Mexico in 1519, the Spanish put the native Indians to work mining gold and silver. This set of replica coins contains a Bust Peso (the coin of the realm) and three Pieces of Eight, which was the ideal way of making change. Minted in the US from actual coins currently in private collections.  Great for students and teachers, they make a great costume accessory too!
