1715 FLEET 8 ESCUDO GOLD COB SHIPWRECK COIN

I have what I believe to be a 1715 Fleet 8 Escudo gold cob shipwreck coin. I do not know where to take it, so I can get it authenticated and possible find a buyer. I emailed several coin places but no one ever emailed me back. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Mr. Sedwick is indeed one of the foremost authoritys on these coins!
    While I'm no expert I do own a real one and would be happy to take a look at yours.
