I have weighed the coin, and this is indeed the case.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am new to Spanish colonial coins, and as far as I can tell the details match up. However, I wanted to get views on here as to whether it is genuine?</p><p><br /></p><p>The only thing that troubles me are the hairlines on both the obverse and reverse.
