Pretty cool, is there a way to authenticate it?  I'm not sure of the process for authenticating shipwreck coins.

Thanks for the link! Would've thought it would be worth more than $20.

I do understand how to find out what coin it's supposed to be, my question is more specific - let me clarify. 

Will any coin dealer be able to verify if this coin is authentic or a replica?  My local coin dealer can definitely authenticate US or popular world coins, but I'm wondering if a specialist would be required for this type of coin.

It looks like an actual coin from the shipwreck.. But let me call down a buddy of mine who's an expert in shipwreck coins to determine if it's the real deal or a replica.

NGC and PCGS will both grade and authentic such a coin.  Outside of that, you would need quite a bit of experience with that series of coins to properly determine authenticity.

That said, in my opinion, the coin in the OP has spent a good deal of time submerged in salt water.

1. That a real coin. As i said, escrow release only after you inspect it. 101% its real, my word, as newcomer but still a word
If there is any doubt should i put it on the weight scales?

The coin is fake. In 1747 they hammered hot silver and gold coins making them Imperfect. The coin in the picture is round and looks to be the same thickness all around.

Interested in the coin but would you let someone authenticate it.  Last thing i need is a fake coin which the money doesnt matter, its the fact of getting one over'd on.

I did some digging and it appears to be this coin:

I don't think the coin is fake. The coins are selling for ~$20 on Ebay.
