$2,899.00

This is a real “Mel Fisher’s Silver 8 Reale Coin”  Autographed by Mr. Mel Fisher himself. You won’t find very many 8 Reale Coins with an Autographed Certificate of Authenticity from Mel. They are very difficult to find. This is the only one we have.

At that time in the Key West location, if Mel was asked by a customer to put the coin inside of a bezel to wear, Mel would get it done.  This is one of the coins Mel did have his jeweler piece together what the customer wanted.   Mel was just one of those guys. A Grade 4, 8 Reale, that was encased in a 14 kt. Gold type bezel Pendant. Accented by 6 – 3 mm Emeralds and 2 – 2.70 mm Diamonds. The Certificate of Authenticity is also autographed by Mel Fisher himself. A book is also included with the purchase signed by Kim Fisher, “Coins of the Lost Galleons.” These are the actual items you will receive with the Pendant: Certificate of Authenticity from Mel Fisher, Book signed by Kim Fisher. Finally, you will receive a Certificate of Authenticity from Spanish Conquest Designs signed by Michael.

This is the actual piece you will receive.
