This Mexican crown not only looks off-color, it weighs too much. (29.5 vs a target of 27.07 grams). (A reeded edge, btw).

I have some fake 20 Reales from Spain to post, if there is any interest.

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.

I like the original coin. What a beauty of a fake. Even Ferninand is scowling at how bad it looks.

The more counterfeits the better.

The 1817 is a Numismatic Forgery Class 3 very recently made in a collared press. It is more of a Replica than a counterfeit.
