  1. Hey everybody appreciate you approving me to the board. I have a coin here I'm not sure about I was hoping to get some insight on. Thank you very much and appreciate any help ahead of time. I included the back and front to check out.

    It appears to be a modern replica of a Spanish reale wait for more responses.

    Size and weight? Metal type?

  5. I don't have the coin on me but I'll get that info asap. Thank you guys for a fast response. It has a ticket if authenticity and I did have a dealer look at it and confirm it's real but he didn't know to much past that.

    Nice photos, looks a little grainy, but many of these do. I hate the hole. Weight and composition (XRF at a dealer) would help. These are WIDELY imitated.

    It looks like a fake tourist bauble, would like to see the certificate
     
  8. I will get it out of storage in the next few days and post pics of the paperwork and better resolution.

    Yes, just judging by the size that is a modern imitation of a Spanish 8 reale. Unless of course the hand in the photos belongs to Andre the Giant.
