Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 09/07/2024 5:56 pm Quote: Fake 1894 Spanish 5 Pesetas. Fakes like this have been seen in street markets all over Spain since the early 1980s I remember seeing fakes like this (and similar Spanish 5 Pesetas coins going back to 1871) in the mid-1960s in the markets In Palma, Majorca and Barcelona.

Spyro Valued Member United Kingdom 383 Posts	Posted 09/08/2024 02:27 am Hiya Dearborn. Here's the pics. It could of course be a genuine 5/- overstrike on a counterfeit 8 Reales... Edited by Spyro 09/08/2024 02:28 am Report this Post to the Staff
Gamezcal New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 09/08/2024 11:25 am Greetings Numismatics. I'm not sure if it's fake but I can't find any similar coinage error. Just certifying it. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74078 Posts	Posted 09/08/2024 12:38 pm Gamezcal, it's real, but heavily damaged. Not an error. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25156 Posts	Posted 09/08/2024 12:39 pm to the CCF, Gamezcal! Your cent does not look counterfeit. Rather, it has suffered mechanical damage (a scrape) and an acid trip. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Edited by HondoB 09/08/2024 12:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95787 Posts	Posted 09/13/2024 12:53 pm @Spyro: thanks for posting up that coin Unfortunately it is above my level of understanding on it. May I suggest that you start a brand new topic for this coin in the appropriate area and give the experts examine it. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Spyro Valued Member United Kingdom 383 Posts	Posted 09/29/2024 02:39 am Hiya. Two things. First, I've just looked at Pertinax's 2 pounder and Her Maj's hair and profile don't look right to me. Interesting though cos the reverse looks pretty convincing, though I'd like to see a close-up of the pattern in the centre. Second, as regards my overstruck 8 Reales, at least one source of information tells me the original weight may have varied, so without knowing the date of the original coin I'm a bit stuck...
