Collection of Replica Spanish Colonial Cob Coins

This is a grouping of nine replica coins modeled after Spanish Colonial 'cobs' (cabo de barra). The assembly includes five coins with a brassy, gold-tone finish and four with a weathered, silver-tone finish. These items are contemporary reproductions, likely cast from base metals and plated to mimic gold Escudos and silver Reales. They feature common iconographic motifs from the 16th to 18th centuries, including the Cross of Florence with fleurs-de-lis in the angles and the Spanish royal coat of arms. One gold-tone replica prominently displays the date '1715', referencing the famous plate fleet wreck. Physically, the coins exhibit irregular, hand-struck shapes intended to simulate historical crude minting techniques; however, the uniformity of certain details and the unnatural surface texture suggest modern casting. The condition appears to be fair with artificial patina applied to the silver-tone pieces to simulate age and oxidation. There are no authentic mint marks or assayer initials that would indicate genuine numismatic value. These are frequently sold as souvenir 'pirate treasure' or for historical educational purposes.
