Hi all

I'm new to the site and 8 Reales. I have read with great interst some of the Reales posts. I have bought a 1796 coin. I would really appreciate your views on my coin if it's original

The coins weight is 27g
Many thanks

The weight sounds right, and I like those obverse radial fissures, but it looks like it's been polished. I'm also skeptical of all those bubbles near the obverse rim. Might be from casting.

Many thanks for taking the time to share your opinion.

I have concerns around the blob at the bottom of the castle
