Hello everyone.

I recently acquired this peso; however, after viewing an older thread here on the forum, I am concerned that the coin I bought may be a counterfeit. Specifically, I noticed that the denticles on my coin seem to be removed from the edge similarly to how they are on the coin in the older thread, and there seems to be some sort of line running between the reeds. I also noticed lines coming from underneath the text on the obverse, though mine does not seem to be as strong, as well as some other similarities between my coin and the one in the older thread.

The weight on mine is 27.08 grams, and the diameter is 37.9 mm. It does not seem to be magnetic.

Here is a link to the thread I am referencing:

Please let me know if these pictures are not that good, or if additional pictures are needed.

I would appreciate your opinions. Thank you.

Better focused and closer images would be nice, but even as they are, makes me think of it as not being genuine.
