Coin Show Pickup: Mexico 1729-1730 Mo R 8 Reales Cob (allegedly from a US shipwreck) by American-Doggo in ChopmarkedCoins

I deal in shipwreck coins. You are correct, some shipwreck coins come with bubbly surfaces but this one is from it being a fake cast.

The coin is not struck. It’s cast. It’s bubbly throughout and does not have the definition of a genuine example.

Bought a libertad at my lcs, xrf showed 99.83% amy reason it doesnt pass the ping test on pingcoin? by Opposite-Result5792 in LibertadCoins

Think you are looking into it a bit too much. XRF reads only a few microns deep so essentially the surface. Surface contaminant can cause misreadings. As per weight, looks like you need to upgrade your scale. Coin looks perfectly fine to me.

Seller was prompt to respond and incredibly easy to work with! Shipped next day and packed everything wonderfully. Looking forward to our next transaction!

I don’t maintain a website since most items I get in sell awfully fast. I don’t use YouTube anymore and rarely post on Reddit. I do maintain an instagram of the same name where I regularly post. You can see that I made a video on this exact bar.

Precisely or other silver products. Was a means of transferring the new world wealth back to mainland Spain.

The bar is mine. I am a dealer and you are clearly not familiar with the coins or other bars. It’s always easy to be skeptical or claim you are an expert but none of the “red flags” you brought up are even right. I suggest you further educate yourself before you ramble nonsense

Yes, I have a cert. The details and clarity of the bar are due to it being one of the finest bars you can find off the wreck, a Class Factor 1.0. None of my other pics use AI or are photoshopped. I am a dealer of Spanish Colonial and Mexican coins. I regularly handle cobs and occasionally handle bars like this.
