I have some fake 20 Reales from Spain to post, if there is any interest. Bill Report this Post to the Staff

BillSnyder Pillar of the Community 778 Posts	Posted 07/14/2012 10:10 pm Oops. I only have one fake Spanish 20 Reales. Permit me to show some later Spanish fake crowns, like the 1870 5 Pesetas piece that I've just uploaded in another message. Bill Report this Post to the Staff
