Hello,

I ask your help again to grade this coin and confirm if it is real. Thanks in advance,

Looks like a 'Royal Strike'. They are quite rare, and valuable.

I do not know how to pick fakes with these.

It seems to be too good to be true, probably is.

What is it's weight? Who is selling it? Where did it come from?

Need answers to all of these questions.

The shape of the top of the pillars looks different than any other 4 reales from the year I could find, and the legend says "ET PERV", the recorded legend in the documentation is "EL PERV". Although the material, shape and weight are correct this coin is most certainly a fake.
