[QUOTE="AussieCollector, post: 2962960, member: 81093"]Thanks for your responses everyone. I'm glad that it looks ok, despite some potential question marks. I mainly posted it because I didn't know what the edge design was supposed to look like. I have 8 Reales cobs, and one from 1752 (which is the floral design) so I was unsure about this one. And yes, it does look like it has been cleaned over and over again. A real pity about what that did to the shield. I can't really speak for the overlap per se (except to note looking at the coin that I can see more overlapping length than one link on the side you speak of). I can speak for the SG however. As mentioned above I have 8 Reales cob varieties, as well as a milled coin (along with French and Dutch crown-sized coins) and I have found my scales are not accurate enough to get a precise SG and that 10.27 is exactly what I would expect when I measure on my scales.[/QUOTE]
