<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kalinda, post: 1267016, member: 33202&quot;]I recently purchased an 1882 Mexican 8 reales coin at a flea market. The coin had obviously been cleaned but actually has pretty nice detail. A quick ring check to my ear confirmed that it was silver so I bought it. Once I got home I had a closer look and noticed that LIBERTAD is actually spelled LIBEFTAD with an &quot;F&quot; on the coin. Is this a known error? A quick check has confirmed that the coin is indeed silver and it weighs a fraction over 27 grams. Any got any thoughts in this? Is it a mint error? A contemporary fake? </p><p><br /></p><p>Apologies for the bad picture....</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]137979.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
