An exceptionally well-preserved, ~39mm diameter, early 17th Century 8 Reales coin or piece of eight in a custom-made, solid 9k yellow gold frame set with 75 brilliant. 1.1-carat round diamonds. The vice sits on an 83mm stretch of waxed cotton cord, finished at each end with gold bolo tips, each set with nine more diamonds — same karat and carat. The springed fastener on the reverse is only as big as it needs to be, allowing for the crest — two castles and two lions — to still be admired.
