looks very legit. As usual, weight, SG test (I know that's not happening) and a better pic of edging would be helpful, but overall looks good!

The reverse, in particular, has several suspicious areas. I don't like those small, circular pock marks or the strange lines in the fields above the R in REX and along the right pillar. The dentils between the H and I in HISPAN are odd and I'm not sure what's going on with the P in HISPAN. This needs an accurate weight measurement and we need to see the proper overlap in the edge design.
