. Spain José I Bonaparte. 4 Reales 1811 Madrid AI (No reserve price)

Stunning and sought-after 4 Reales coin minted under the reign of José I Bonaparte (usurper king) in the year 1811. A fundamental piece of Spanish numismatics from the 19th century, highly prized by collectors due to its brief and tumultuous period of issue.

Reverse: Crowned shield of arms of Spain with the emblems of the dominions, flanked by the value 4 R. and bordered by the legend ·HISPANIARUM · ET · IND · REX ·. Technical details: Country / Period: Spain / Reign of José I Bonaparte (1811). Denomination: 4 Reales (Medium Cupronickel). [Note: Original says Medio Duro; in English we would say Medium Silver?

Here keep as in original: “Medium Duro”.] Metal: Silver (characteristic fineness of the era). Weight: 5.90 grams (verified on a precision balance). Condition: Circulated, with a beautiful original patina of the period and well-defined reliefs on the bust and the escutcheon. Legal tender: Historical piece for collection (no current legal tender).
