Hi,
First time here, nice to meet you.

I was studying this coin (that I don't own), sold through a Cayón Subastas auction
Your-Opinion-On-This-1750-MO-Mf-8-Reales?
Your-Opinion-On-This-1750-MO-Mf-8-Reales?

As I usually trust Cayón I assume it's an original one, but some details are a little bit strange, like the 'Mo' on the left, the dot close to the 'Mo' on the right, or the scroll around the right column.

Any opinion or explanation? Could it be the result of the oxidation?
Thank you,
Carmack

I can't help you, but I have to say one thing.
It is certainly a pleasure to see such a high quality photo (for a change).
No doubt other members that know much more than I do will find your post.
And due to your outstanding pictures, I'm sure you'll get a good reply.
Coin photography is a different topic, but if it's ok to ask, what did you use and how did you get such a superb photo?

Hi,

Thank you jbuck for the welcome :)

Albert, the pictures are not from me, I will ask the owner (or maybe are they from the auction house itself)
I just paid attention to keep the maximum size & the best compression ratio to stay just under 300kB for the file size limit.

So, about the photos. They were done using... a simple Samsung cellphone.
Weight is correct, I will share the edges as soon as I get the coin.
