Description: | Fragment of a Spanish silver 4 real coin that has been cut down the central cross preserving a single letter 'S'. The cuts have been made deliberately down either side of the cross in order to preserve the line and the S intact. The cut tapers slightly outwards so as to accomodate the S within the cut, suggesting this was the focus of the cutting. The obverse face of the coin has been badly damaged by the cutting sheers and through wear. The reverse side is very well preserved with little damage to what remains of the face.Length: 27.31mmWidth: 2.96mmWeight: 0.68g
