1820 JP 8 Reale Old Jewelry Milled Bust Colonial World Silver Crown Bolivia Coin
The First silver dollar used in America's thirteen original states was a Spanish dollar that was minted at the oldest
mints of the New World. Mexico, Peru, Bolivia, Guatemala, and Chile were among the countries that produced this treasured coin.
Recommended as the official coinage for the new United States of America by Thomas Jefferson, this coin was the basic currency
of our Founding Fathers, widely circulated during the post-Revolutionary era and used as legal tender until 1857. When it was first introduced,
it replaced another Spanish Silver dollar, known as the " pillar dollar," which had been used by colonist for decades.
These colonial period coins circulated freely in the many New World colonies of Spain and many were lost in shipwrecks.
Used for old jewelry making, maybe made a bracelet or medallion charm.
