Mexico 8 Reales Question

I bought this coin as part of an auction lot, and from my limited online research these were not minted until 1823. It weighs 27.1 grams. Is it counterfeit? Thanks for your help.

Now that I look closely at the photo, I think that’s a 9 with damage. 1891.
1891 Ho FG
Ho = Hermosillo Mint
FG = Assayer initials
Rarity = Common
Becomes rare in AU or higher grades
No known major varieties of this date and mint
Nice coin!!!
