Christophe 77 Posted August 11, 2023 · Member Share Posted August 11, 2023 Hello everyone For my first international purchase I think I was fooled. I am really disappointed. The piece is only 19 grams and look at the slices. What do you think? Thank you all and have a good day 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benefactor Theodosius Posted August 12, 2023 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted August 12, 2023 Looks off, where are the dentils on the pillar side? The weight is way off. I would send it back.☹️ John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benefactor robinjojo Posted August 15, 2023 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted August 15, 2023 (edited) The coin looks like a tourist souvenir. Just to give you a general idea of the appearance of a genuine milled pillars and waves 8 reales, here's an example: Mexico, 8 reales, Ferdinand VI, 1754 MF.

rzage Posted September 1, 2023 · Member Share Posted September 1, 2023 I agree that its weight is too far off to be real . 27.06 is the listed weight for any 8 reale coin , dentils are off . Here’s one of mine ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
