1754 Peru 8 Reales MS-62
Struck in Peru from 1751-1772, these large and impressive silver coins were actually legal tender in the United States until 1857. In fact, the US Dollar is based on the size and metal standard found in the silver 8 Real coin. Furthermore, the design on the front of the coin is the origin for the Dollar Symbol that we use today.
