| Beschrijving voorzijde | Replica of the reverse die of a Ferdinand VI Mexican mint Pillar Dollar (8 Reales). The central device features the crowned Royal Arms of Spain — a quartered shield displaying the castles of Castile and lions of León, with the Granada pomegranate in base and the Bourbon fleur-de-lis in the centre escutcheon — all surmounted by an ornate royal crown. The mint mark 'MM' (Mexico City) appears to the left of the shield and the denomination '8' to the right, with assayer mark to the right. The circular legend reads FERDND • VI • D • G • HISPAN • ET IND • REX, distributed around the periphery. The coin is identified as a modern replica by the 'COPY' imprint visible on the complementary side. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This is a replica, not a genuine piece, and should be cataloged accordingly. The original 1757 pillar dollars were struck at multiple New World mints — Mexico City, Lima, and Potosí among them — under Ferdinand VI, with each mint leaving its own assayer marks. Authentic examples of this type circulated as de facto international currency across the Atlantic world and into Asia via the Manila Galleon trade, where they were often chopmarked by Chinese merchants to verify silver content.
