Spanish Cob Coin
Jewelry Cob coins were hand manufactured by
cutting blanks from crudely cast bars of refined silver or gold and hand
hammered between crudely engraved dies. They lack the detail of modern
machine struck coins, but each is unique in shape and strike, which makes
them so interesting. Certificates of
Authenticity accompany all Spanish Coin Jewelry.
