<p>[QUOTE="BlackBeard_Thatch, post: 2992350, member: 85208"]+1 on the idea of sending pcitures to Sedwick. Here is Daniel's website, <a href="http://www.sedwickcoins.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.sedwickcoins.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sedwickcoins.com/</a> . Personally I think something is fishy about this coin. It's a 8 escudo Pillar and Waves design from the Lima Mint but its missing the date and assayer. The coins is off struck missing these critical parts of the coin and if the assayers mark was missing it would of been melted back down but its weight is correct. The silver part is also concerning because it almost looks like plating is chipping away from the coin and I'm seeing this happen on two places on the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
