Greetings alll! Any thoughts on this coin? I'm interested in these types but I'm no expert on counter stamps or 8 reale pieces. Any obvious concerns?

Well, it has already been sold so it doesn't really matter anymore.

I am no expert on these and the photos are not great. Pictures of the rim would have helped as that seems to be the most difficult thing for the fakers to get right.

I would be concerned over the number of tiny bubble-like marks, which might be the result of casting. I also have never seen one with quite such an aggressive countermark struck into it - it looks much deeper than any I have seen before.
