The coins arrived today, and as far as I can tell, they look fine...but Ray=
is the expert on these...(he loves when I say that<s>)....these are scans,=
and some done with the door closed, the edges obviously opened, but the co=
ins, aside from the 1/2 dime seem to have very similar toning. The edges on=
the cut piece seem toned the same as the rest of the coin, and where the d=
arker toning appears is similar. I've included large scans of the edges. Th=
e cut piece weighs 1.31 grams. King Louis=A0ruled just 7 months before his =
untimely death. and I can actually attribute this down to the KM#328 based =
on the Assayer initial of F and the partial legend showing the monarch. It =
was struck under King Louis, minted in Segovia, with the assayer initial F =
for Fernando Vazquez and Fernando Vargas.
=A0
Of course comparing these to Rays known dug cut pieces side by side will he=
lp solidify my belief that these were dug and the 2 reales was already cut =
when lost. My eye tells me it's good, and the sellers way of listing these,=
and his story seems to validate this. But Ray being the utmost authority o=
n cut silver<s>...just kidding, but he has several, and it will help to com=
pare next time I see him.

I had planned to sell the other pieces to cheapen the cost of the cut piece=
, but have reconsidered, feeling to break up the family would actually not =
be a good thing...interesting to see the American trime is holed...I guess =
the size made that a neccesity to keep from losing it....most of the time.<=
s>....likewise with the 1772 Mexican 1/2 reale, which is the inverted assay=
ers initials type.
