<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 1853877, member: 15019&quot;]There&#039;s a guy named Robert Gurney that has been doing extensive research on this matter for an upcoming book. He began collecting contemporary counterfeit 8 reales a good 5 decades ago and has rounded up sources on what can be called the &quot;Boston&quot; type counterfeits, which are neither contemporary nor modern copies, but bullion pieces. The scenario he describes is similar to the 1780 Maria Theresa thalers. Not sure why is not active on this forum, but there are detailed analyses of many such pieces on coincommunity. A lot of the people who know about these types seem to be concentrated over there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
