¡¡1/8 real - Granada!!
Catholic Kings (1474-1504). 1/8 real. Granada. (Cal-153, same dies). Anv.: · FERNANDVS · D · G · REX ·. F coronada entre G y roel. Rev.: hELISABET · D · G : REG ·. Y coronada. . 0,40 g.
Second known example. Light patina and a small bend at one of the edges. Extremely rare, of the highest numismatic interest and historical importance.
It would be a delight for any collector and an excellent opportunity to acquire a wonderful specimen that would be a highlight in any coin collection and we are sure we will not see it offered at auction for many years again. The other specimen (made with the same dies) was auctioned on December 12, 2018, by Áureo & Calicó as part of the Isabel de Trastámara collection, with a hammer price of €65,000.
This exceptional ⅛ real fraction, minted in the Granada mint under Christian rule, stands as a unique numismatic testimony to the political, economic, and cultural unification process undertaken by the Catholic Monarchs after the conquest of the Nasrid Kingdom in 1492. It belongs to the period of monetary reorganization led by the monarchy, aimed at strengthening royal authority through a uniform monetary system centered around the silver real.
Although the Pragmatic of Medina del Campo (1497) is the most well-known legal reference for this reform, its foundations can be traced back to the Pragmática of 1417 (under Juan II), which established the real as the basic monetary unit. From 1475 onward, the Catholic Monarchs revived this model and promoted the issuance of smaller denominations, such as this ⅛ real, to support local trade and circulation in newly incorporated territories.
What makes this coin particularly fascinating is its square shape—atypical within the traditional Castilian monetary system. This form may have been a deliberate strategy to emulate the old ¼ dirhams, which circulated widely in the Kingdom of Granada before its conquest. Thus, this small coin served as a cultural bridge, designed to facilitate its acceptance among the Mudéjar population, blending familiar aesthetics with the Christian symbols of the new rulers: Ferdinand’s yoke, Isabella’s arrows, and possibly the heraldic pomegranate or the “G” mintmark.
As such, this coin carries immense historical and symbolic value, embodying the intersection of civilizations during a pivotal moment in Iberian history. Its rarity, integrative purpose, and possible political significance make it a highly prized piece for collectors of medieval coinage and those interested in the Catholic Monarchs . Almost XF.

Legends are complete, though somewhat weak in certain areas. An extraordinary obverse, considered among the finest known. Slight double striking and hairlines on the reverse. Fine transversal crack, more pronounced on the reverse, with some excess of metal. Extremely rare. Slabbed by NGC as AU Details, Obv. Tooled.
These coins are regarded as the first South American “dollars.” They were minted without explicit authorization and exhibit notable technical deficiencies — such as weight below the legal standard, irregularities in the die work (including double striking and cracks), the use of dies with spelling errors, and rudimentary engraving — which led to the rapid suspension of their production. They belong to the earliest 8 reales issues in the Americas, produced by assayers surnamed Rincón at the mints of Mexico (1538), Lima (1568–69), and Potosí (1575). Only three specimens are known from Mexico; those from Potosí number only a few dozen, while Lima pieces, such as this example, have fewer than ten registered specimens, making them iconic in colonial numismatics.
The Lima Mint was authorized by Philip II by Royal Order on August 21, 1565, although actual operations did not commence until September 1568. Under the direction of assayer Alonso Rincón — son of the renowned Rincón of Mexico — the mint was established in the local government building, which also served as a jail. On September 2, 1568, the die bearing the initial "R" was delivered, and the first silver deposits date from the 6th. In just over a year, more than 20,000 marks of silver were recorded, originating both from the Royal Treasury and a small group of local merchants known as "silver banks."
The mint’s activity was intense but brief and troubled. By late 1569, following an official inspection, various irregularities were detected, including the alleged misappropriation of seigniorage — the fiscal profit from minting — as well as the production of 8 reales coins not stipulated in the original regulations. Treasurer Lope de Mendaña was accused and convicted but later acquitted with a symbolic fine. Viceroy Francisco de Toledo later confirmed that, although not included in the initial ordinances, the mint was indeed authorized to produce duros (8 reales coins). After the scandal, operations ceased on October 11, 1569, and partially transferred to La Plata.
According to several specialists, including Paoletti, the striking of these exceedingly rare duros from Lima dates between 1568 and 1570. This specimen most likely corresponds to the brief and turbulent initial period, between September 1568 and October 1569. It is a piece of immense rarity, with fewer than ten specimens held in public and private collections, although no exact census has been published. Est...35000,00.

This is a magnificent coin, certain to catch the eye of collectors of this period. Extremely rare, with only a few known specimens. Slabbed by NGC as AU Details, Environmental damage.

Extremely rare, with only 4 to 5 known examples. Encapsulated by NGC as XF Details, Environmental damage.
In 1579, Philip II authorized the minting of silver coins in the city of Panama, establishing rules on their composition and design, including the use of the mintmark PA, with the A superimposed. Although documentation on this mint was discovered in 1952, its existence remained little known and went unnoticed by numismatists.
Recent research by J. Proctor confirmed it operated between 1580 and 1583, and that the cobs with crowned shields and the A over P mark correspond to its production.
These coins are extremely rare, with very few known specimens in all their variants. The identity of the assayers is unconfirmed, although it is suggested that Bernardino Rodríguez may have worked there in 1582–1583. This coin is exempt from any export license fee. Est...10000,00.

Las monedas en la época de la Monarquía española son las representadas por los Reyes Católicos y las dinastías de los Austrias (Felipe II, Felipe III, Felipe IV y Carlos II) y los Borbones (Felipe V, Luis I, Fernando VI, Carlos III, Carlos IV, Fernando VII, José Napoleón e Isabel II)
Profundizando en cada una de las etapas de la Monarquía española vemos que la acuñación de moneda difiere bastante.
Las monedas más utilizadas durante el reinado de Fernando e Isabel fueron: la blanca, el maravedí, el real y el excelente.
Durante la etapa de los Austrias, las monedas más destacadas fueron las macuquinas tanto en plata (1/2, 1, 2, 4 y 8 reales) como en oro (1, 2, 4 y 8 escudos), además de las acuñaciones de la Casa de Segovia y los maravedís.
Durante la dinastía de los Borbones evolucionaron los métodos de acuñación, pero se mantuvieron los valores hasta que durante el reinado de José I Bonaparte se introdujo por primera vez la peseta con las 5 pesetas de plata y las 20 pesetas de oro acuñados en Barcelona. Durante el reinado de Isabel II, se introdujeron multitud de valores nuevos, los más destacados fueron: los 1 y 2 escudos de plata, 10 y 20 reales de plata; y los 80 y 100 reales de oro. Se suprimieron los 8 reales y 8 escudos.
La numismática de la Monarquía Española sufrió altibajos importantes. Una sucesión de conflictos bélicos durante la época marcó al país. Cualquier amante y coleccionista de monedas antiguas sabe que poseer una de estas reliquias es tener un trozo de la historia de España consigo.
Es un buen momento para comprar monedas porque es un valor muy seguro. La moneda española después de la americana es la segunda moneda más coleccionada en el mundo.
