Look at the enlarged images of this 1895 Puerto Rico Peso.
The designers initials at the base of the bust on a genuine coin are B.M. This counterfeit shows initials S.M. The obverse fields also show very suspect granular surfaces, and very weak dentil detail. Obviously a forgery!

A quick comparison to this offering by Gemcocoins will show what another raw, real coin should look like

TURBO

He says 100% GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC .....

I don't think seller knows it's fake. ( I know nothing about Peso) Why would he post high resolution pictures? Have you e-mailed him? What did he say? He has 100% positive feedback.

I informed the seller that they left out one important detail from their description. Counterfeit.

I listed a coin as 100% authentic once, TURBO. When I got a message from Fred Weinberg that it was a contemporary counterfeit, it was embarassing. Thankfully I pulled it before the posse got ahold of it
