Reales, pieces of eight, doubloones and ducats
Who doesn't know it, in films and books there are always stories about great pirate treasures and lots of coins are shown. But what kind of coins are they? Here is a small overview.
Silver real
Tumblr media
Silver coin: 8 reales Fernando VI, Viceroyalty of New Spain - 1757 (x)
The real was a coin and a currency in Spain for several centuries after the mid-14th century, weighing 0,12 ounces (3,43g) of silver, and these were eight reales to a peso, hence the term " pieces of eight" for pesos.
Silver piece of eight or Spanish Dollar
Tumblr media
Spanish piece of eight, 1780 (x)
Was an early Spanish silver dollar sized coin, with a content of 25.563 g = 0.822 oz t fine silver. As Spanish mints issued silver denominations smaller than eight reales relatively infrequently, these coins would sometimes be chopped up into smaller pieces to provide small change. In the 17th and 18th centuries, so many were in circulation that they were accepted almost anywhere in the world. The American doller sign $ was derived from the figure 8 stamped on the side of the piece of eight, the silver peso (or piaster). They were minted at Mexico City and Lima in Peru, and were common currency in all of England's colonies, being valued at four shillings and sixpence. Often they wre cut into eight pieces for ease of transaction, so that two bits made a quarter. The origin of the American phrase, not worth two bits, is from the days when the English colonies around Massachusetts used this Spanish money. Pieces of eight were produced for about 300 years, in Mexcio, Peru and Colombia, and they became the standard unit of trade between Europe and China. They wre legal tender in the USA until 1857. Before the Spanish started exploiting Potosi in Peru (in today's Bolivia), silver was almost as valuable as gold in the Old World. Such were the quantities taken from the New World, that silver dropped to about a 1/5 of the value of gold. The Spanish exported four billion pesos of silver and gold from the New World between 1492 and 1830.
Gold ducat
Tumblr media
Gold ducat of Venice. Doge Andrea Gritti, Italy, 1523-38 (x)
This was the European gold trade coin, containing around 3.5 grams (0.11 troy ounces) of 98.6% fine gold, during the late medieval and early modern period. The name derives from ducatus, the Latin form of the title of the Doge of Venice, whre the ducat was first issued 1284. Called the ducado, it was worth less than a doubloon, about 10-11 silver reales, and was known to the British seaman as a ducat. The coin was copied throughout mainland Europe, and coins of the ducat standard were struck in several European countries up to the 20th century.
Gold doubloon (doblôn)
Tumblr media
Spanish 4-doubloon, or doubloon of 8 escudos, stamped as minted in Mexico city mint in 1798 (x)
This was an early Spanish gold coin, worth approximately $4 (four Spanish dollars) or 32 reales, and weighing 6.766 grams (0.218 troy ounce) of 22-karat gold (or 0.917 fine; hence 6.2 g fine gold). The name originally applying to the gold excelente of Ferdinand and Isabella. It was later transferred to the two escudo coin issued by Spain and the Spanish colonies in the Americas. It was the largest Spanish gold coin, weighing slightly less than an ounce of gold, and originates from the Latin word duplus, or double. A doubloon was worth about seven weeks wages to a sailor.

Time & Measurements for Xianxia/Wuxia Writers/RPers
I rp within some xianxia verses (mainly mxtx stuff) and I've noticed (and been told) that some people struggle with some things regarding time, measures and money. So, I made this quick, handy info post. This is not all there is and some of this has changed with time. If you want more in detailed information, I recommend you do some own research (I'm adding sources, so you can always start there).
Time
During Daylight: shí-kè (時–刻) Also known as Chinese double/dual hours. The day was divided in 12 shíchén (时辰), which is roughly a 2 hour slot. This is sometimes further divided into chū (first/initial hour, 初) and zhèng (central hour, 正). Each shíchén is also assigned a zodiac animal.
There was also a shorter measurement of time called kè (刻). The exact length of a kè was 1/100 of a day, which is either 24 min, 14.4 min or 14 min 24 seconds.
zǐ (子) (rat) - 23:00 chǒu (丑) (ox) - 01:00 yín (寅) (tiger) - 03:00 mǎo (卯) (rabbit) - 05:00 chén (辰) (dragon) - 07:00 sì (巳) (snake) - 09:00 wǔ (午) (horse) - 11:00 wèi (未) (sheep) - 13:00 shēn (申) (monkey) - 15:00 yǒu (酉) (chicken) - 17:00 xū (戌) (dog) - 19:00 hài (亥) (pig) - 21:00
(An incense stick time is usually somewhere between 15-30 min)
Distance, Length & Weight
Since the metric and imperial equivalent of these measurements have changed with time, I've decided to use the 1915 conversions of them, which roughly corresponds to some of the ancient and imperial conversions.
chĭ (尺) - 32 cm or 12.6 in bù (步) - 1.6 m or 5.2 ft lĭ (里) - 576 m or 630yd
jiāliàng (嘉量) - ancient volume measuring device • yuè (龠) - ~52 ml or 1.822 fl oz • gě (合) - ~103.5 ml or 3.644 fl oz • shēng (升) - ~1.035 litre or 1.822 pt • dŏu (斗) - ~10.35 litre or 2.278 gal • hú (斛) (10 dou) - ~51.8 litre or 11.39 gal
qián (錢) - ~3.7 g or 0.1316 oz liǎng (兩) - ~37 g or 1.316 oz jīn (斤) - ~ 597 g or 1.316 lb
Currency
Wén (文) was the main currency denomination and based on the tael system (liǎng, see weights above) where the value of the currency was based on its weight in liǎng. This was due to there not being a central mint for making of a currency. The currencies commonly came as round copper coins with a hole in the middle or silver or gold ingots, often shaped as 'boats' (but could come in any shape).
Copper coins were often put on a string and a string of 1000 wén, yīguàn qián (贯钱) (usually divided into ten sections of 100 coins), which would then be the equal of one liǎng of pure silver (or one silver ingot).
(Currency changed depending on region, so this is all general)

1 oz. Pure Silver Coloured Coin – Pysanka
For the past seven years, the Mint has issued pysanka-themed collector coins, a spring tradition that pays tribute to Ukrainian culture and artistry in Canada. As we prepare to launch this year's collection, and in light of the invasion of Ukraine, the Mint has decided to donate all net proceeds from the sale of our 2022 gold and silver pysanka coins to the Canadian Red Cross Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal.
Funds raised through this appeal will help the Red Cross respond to humanitarian needs emerging from the current conflict faced by Ukraine. We hope that our donation helps put words into action.
Your coloured pysanka coin for 2022! Strong, lasting and precious, familial bonds are the means by which traditions are passed down. This fine silver coin continues the tradition of celebrating life and the season of renewal through a gorgeous Ukrainian Easter egg—a pysanka that conveys a blessing. On the coin's reverse, the colour motifs come together to form an unforgettable celebration of family, enduring love, and the endless possibilities that each new generation brings.

Everything You Need to Know About Silver Bullion Coins
Tumblr media
Silver bullion coins are one of the most accessible and attractive ways to invest in precious metals. Whether you are a seasoned investor, a new buyer looking to diversify your portfolio, or a collector, silver bullion coins offer flexibility, liquidity, and a wide range of options. In this guide, we’ll explore the key aspects of silver bullion coins, including their benefits, types, investment strategies, and considerations to help you make informed decisions.
1. What Are Silver Bullion Coins?
Silver bullion coins are coins made primarily of silver, minted by government or private mints, and typically have a guaranteed weight and purity. While these coins may carry a face value as legal tender, their actual value is determined by the market price of silver (the spot price) plus a small premium charged by the seller.
Composition: Most silver bullion coins are made of 99.9% pure silver (referred to as "three nines fine"). Some specialty coins may even reach a purity of 99.99% or contain a mix of metals.
Weight: Standard silver bullion coins are typically produced in one troy ounce, but fractional sizes (such as 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, or 1/10 oz) and larger coins (up to 1 kilogram or more) are also available.
Legal Tender: Although these coins are legal tender in their country of issuance, their face value is symbolic and far lower than the value of the silver they contain. For example, a 1 oz Silver Maple Leaf has a face value of CAD $5 but is worth much more due to its silver content.
2. Why Invest in Silver Bullion Coins?
Investing in silver bullion coins provides several benefits, making them a favorite choice among investors and collectors alike.
a) Affordability
Compared to gold, silver is significantly more affordable, allowing new investors or those with limited capital to get started easily. Even though the cost per ounce is lower, silver bullion coins offer a similar safe-haven investment potential.
b) Liquidity
Silver bullion coins are widely recognized and accepted globally, which makes them easy to buy, sell, or trade. Major coins such as the American Silver Eagle or the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf have high demand in global markets, ensuring liquidity.
c) Portfolio Diversification
Silver is often seen as a complement to other investments, such as stocks, bonds, and even gold. It tends to perform differently in economic cycles, offering a hedge against inflation, currency devaluation, and financial instability.
d) Tangible Asset
Unlike paper assets or digital investments, silver bullion coins are physical assets. You own and control them directly, which adds a layer of security, especially in times of economic uncertainty or geopolitical turmoil.
e) Collector’s Value
In addition to their intrinsic silver value, many bullion coins carry numismatic or collectible value due to their rarity, limited mintage, or unique designs. Over time, these factors can significantly increase their worth.
3. Popular Silver Bullion Coins
Silver bullion coins come in many varieties from mints around the world. Some of the most popular silver coins for investors include:
a) American Silver Eagle
First issued in 1986, the American Silver Eagle is one of the most recognized and trusted bullion coins in the world. It is produced by the U.S. Mint and contains 1 troy ounce of .999 pure silver. The iconic design features Lady Liberty on the obverse and a heraldic eagle on the reverse.
b) Canadian Silver Maple Leaf
Produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, the Silver Maple Leaf is another highly sought-after silver coin. Introduced in 1988, this coin is famous for its 99.99% silver purity, making it one of the purest bullion coins available. The coin's design features the Canadian maple leaf on the reverse and Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse.
c) Austrian Silver Philharmonic
Issued by the Austrian Mint, the Silver Philharmonic was first minted in 2008 and contains 1 troy ounce of .999 pure silver. The coin's intricate design pays homage to the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, featuring musical instruments on the reverse and the Great Organ from the Golden Hall in Vienna on the obverse.
d) British Silver Britannia
The Silver Britannia coin is produced by The Royal Mint in the UK and was first released in 1997. It contains 1 troy ounce of .999 pure silver and features the iconic image of Britannia, the female personification of Britain. This coin is known for its beauty and is a favorite among collectors and investors.
e) Australian Silver Kangaroo
The Perth Mint’s Silver Kangaroo is another popular bullion coin, recognized for its high purity (.9999 fine silver) and its depiction of Australia's native kangaroo. First minted in 2016, it quickly gained popularity due to its design and quality.
4. How to Invest in Silver Bullion Coins
Investing in silver bullion coins can be straightforward, but there are several factors to consider to maximize your investment.
a) Understand the Premiums
When you buy silver bullion coins, you will often pay a premium above the spot price of silver. This premium covers minting, distribution, and dealer profit. Popular coins with high demand, such as the American Silver Eagle, often carry higher premiums than less well-known coins.
b) Buy from Reputable Dealers
To avoid counterfeit coins or overpaying, it is essential to buy from reputable dealers. Look for authorized dealers or well-known online platforms that specialize in precious metals. Some trustworthy dealers also offer buyback programs, ensuring you can sell your coins when needed.
c) Store Your Silver Safely
Because silver bullion coins are physical assets, you need to consider secure storage options. Many investors choose home safes or bank safety deposit boxes. If you have a significant quantity of silver, you may also want to consider professional vault storage services.
d) Monitor Silver Prices
Silver prices can be volatile and are influenced by a range of factors, including industrial demand, currency fluctuations, and geopolitical events. Keeping an eye on the silver market can help you time your purchases or sales to maximize your investment returns.
5. Tax Considerations for Silver Bullion Coins
Taxation on silver bullion coins varies by country, and it’s important to understand how your investment may be taxed. In many countries, capital gains taxes apply when you sell silver for a profit. Some silver coins may also be subject to value-added tax (VAT) or goods and services tax (GST) at the time of purchase.
In the U.S., capital gains tax applies to the sale of silver bullion, and it is taxed as a collectible at a maximum rate of 28%.
In Canada, silver bullion with a purity of 99.9% or higher is exempt from GST, making Canadian Silver Maple Leafs an attractive option for Canadian investors.
Always consult a tax professional to understand the specific tax implications of investing in silver bullion coins in your jurisdiction.
6. Risks of Investing in Silver Bullion Coins
While silver bullion coins are a relatively safe and stable investment, they do come with certain risks.
a) Price Volatility
Silver prices can fluctuate significantly in the short term due to market demand, economic conditions, and geopolitical events. While silver generally holds its value over time, its market can be more volatile than gold.
b) Storage and Insurance Costs
Storing physical silver can incur costs, especially if you opt for professional vault storage. You may also need to insure your collection against theft or loss, which adds to the overall investment cost.
c) Liquidity Issues for Rare Coins
While widely recognized bullion coins are easy to sell, some rare or collectible coins may have less liquidity. Finding the right buyer willing to pay a premium for numismatic coins can be more challenging.
7. Is Investing in Silver Bullion Coins Right for You?
Silver bullion coins can be an excellent way to diversify your investment portfolio and protect against inflation and market instability. However, they may not be suitable for everyone. If you are looking for a low-cost entry into precious metals with the potential for long-term gains, silver bullion coins are a solid choice. However, those seeking faster returns or who prefer digital assets may find silver less appealing due to its volatility and the need for secure storage.
Conclusion
Silver bullion coins offer a tangible, affordable, and versatile way to invest in precious metals. Whether you're a collector appreciating their beauty and craftsmanship or an investor seeking a hedge against financial instability, these coins provide flexibility and liquidity. With numerous options from mints worldwide and different sizes to fit various budgets, silver bullion coins are a valuable addition to any portfolio. By understanding the market, choosing reputable dealers, and ensuring secure storage, you can make the most of your investment in silver bullion coins.
