Anyone with an interest in the Spanish treasure cobs being brought up from the ocean floor needs to have this as reference material. In very understandable language, learn about the minting procedures, the various denominations and designs, the markings and what they represent as well as a listing of all the mint marks and the known assayers, by names and dates. Illustrations of cobs, maps, coats of arms, and mint marks allow even the novice to gain a better understanding of the Coins of the Lost Galleons.
