How much would it be worth for this coin...1777 carolus 111 dei gratia silver spanish coin
The CAROLUS IIII DEI GRATIA (or CAROLUS IIII DEI G) coins to which you possibly refer was a large silver Spanish-American Eight Reale (pieces of Eight) coin minted at various mints in Spain, Mexico, South and Central America. Due to a shortage of suitable metals during the Naploenic Wars, and a general shortage of circulating currency, the English acquired and countermarked the Spanish-American 8 Reale coins (and others) and used them as "Emergency Issue", referring to them as "Spanish Dollars". The Spanish-American 8 Reales coins were countermarked with a small image of George III in 1804 and circulated as Four Shillings and Ninepence until 1811. Any of these coins in any reasonable condition, as long as they are identifiable and legible, might fetch well over £100 GBP.
