What can you tell me about this 8 Reales? Starting to put together a set with a counter stamp

Can anyone tell about this coin and what to look for a genuine vs. counterfeit?
I am starting to build a set for this series with a counter stamp.
You can also grade it and give me feedback about this coin.

    Sleepy day at the W&AC forum....
    Philipines C/S on 8 soles.. looks dipped but not scrubbed, lightly struck, I would grade it by remaining luster since alot of the detail was never there to begin with.
    Pretty neat circulated coin, I'd like to get a Philipines stamped 8 soles myself soon !

    Be careful! These stamps are heavily counterfeited. Even ones from reputable auction houses have been known to be fake.

    What is to look for when buying this type of c/s? Besides being dipped, does the coin looks genuine?
