The 1750 Spanish Hand Milled Cross Coin Pendant is a beautiful relic from the era of Ferdinand VI, encapsulating a rich piece of Spanish history. This coin, minted in Seville, served as part of the Spanish colonial economy and showcases the proud symbols of the House of Bourbon. The pendant, about the size of a dime, is an exquisite keepsake, further elevated by its 14K gold setting.
The obverse of the coin displays the crowned Bourbon Coat of Arms, a symbol of regal authority and the vastness of the Spanish Empire during the mid-18th century. Surrounding this emblem are the words "FERDINANDUS VI, D.G." signifying "by the Grace of God," a traditional declaration of divine right to rule. The mint mark "S" and the assayer’s mark "PJ" frame the design.
The reverse features a classic cross, a powerful icon of both religious devotion and royal might, with the date "1750" clearly visible above. Encircling this image is the inscription "HISPANIARUM REX," meaning "King of Spain," affirming the coin’s origin and sovereign connection.
