See here -

http://www.amazon.com/Counterfeit-P...eight+reales

or go to Amazon Books - Search Words: Eight Reales


It does explore Chinese counterfeits and their alloys in depth - see the preview tab for the Table of Contents. Much more than an attribution book for this series ... much history, metallurgy, Material Analysis, Counterfeit Detection methods such as third side examinations, etc.

Great price! I know many Colonial Coin collectors that chase contemporaries both US Colonial and foreign ...

If you own an Eight Reales specimen ...

ENJOY!

The hardbound/color bibliophile (serious collector) copy should be out within 1-2 months with the two CD-pack to allow Zoom IN / Zoom OUT capabilities of the ~ 600 Class 1 (off-metal) CC8Rs identified and pictured in the current $40 B&W book. It required a different publisher than Amazon. Announcements will be made and note in the beginning of the book where to request a copy of this higher end issue (i.e., North Carolina address). This address is also seen on Amazon in the Preview link for the current B&W book being sold (i.e., see INSIDE THE BOOK link).
