Did Pirate Coins Actually Exist?
Turns out, there’s no such thing as an official “pirate coin.” The legendary loot pirates are known for was often stolen Spanish currency—like gold doubloons, silver reales, and the iconic “pieces of eight.” These coins weren’t minted by pirates but were taken during raids on ships and ports. Pirates prized them for their high value, especially Spanish coins, which were widely accepted across the seas during the Golden Age of Piracy.
The phrase “pieces of eight” refers to the Spanish dollar, or peso de ocho, which could be physically cut into eight bits—hence where the term “two bits” comes from!
