Hi

Inspite of beeing slightly underweight (due to its rather worn condition, I think), and some chop marks on both sides, the coin seems to be ok.

Did you the magnet test?

Regards

Hi again, 

Most of the Lima 8 Reales of that time are underweight.

 

Just for comparison, my 1805 JP piece is also underweight: 26,34 gr:

 

 

 And even my best piece of that series (1794 IJ ) weights 27,00 grs:

 

 

Regards

alright, it seems to be real, thank you for the explanation about the weight
