It's not bad. A few spots. Pretty typical. Not a high-dollar coin by any means (I concur with @alurid's general comments), but I've seen worse.
I’m just north of you now (Brunswick, GA.)
Sound choice, in my opinion. That one, despite the old crease in it, might have some potential, if the counterstamp could be identified, and...
Yes. It is a tourist replica of a Spanish cob, clearly marked COPY in compliance with the 1973 Hobby Protection Act. It is only a novelty item.
The United Kingdom has some of the most liberal treasure laws in Europe, if not the world, as I understand it. If a find is declared "treasure...
It is certainly educational, and that "tuition" pays dividends further down the road. Today's research opens the door to tomorrow's great...

Sounds like a nice dealer. Make sure to throw him a bone now and then. Give him some sales. Could be a mutually beneficial relationship. World...
Hey, guess what? Turns out somebody else just saw that one, also liked it, and bought it, mere moments ago. Pick another number.
And you will waste a lot of money in the process, paying $35-50 to certify a coin that is worth one cent, and which wouldn't even straight-grade...
