Got weird vibes too, but it's not easy to have a frame of reference because of what seems to be inexistent QC for south american cob coins. As far as i can tell, the design is of 1 & 4 Reales, Carlos & Johanna era, so circa 1550, and Mo = Mexico city mint.
I didn't pay for the order yet because i wanted to have a second guess like yours. Which isn't too conclusive so far kek.

The seller didn't ring up my scamdar, he only sell old coins, and only buy old coins from legit stores too. Have 100% positive feedback with zero neutral, and all his evaluations are legit.
His account is only 2 years old.

There was 18 bidders and no retractations for this auction.
What seems a bit sus though, is most his others coins on sale or already sold are clearly identified, and some are pretty obscur coins. While for this obvious set, he only sold them as "ancient spanish silver royal coins, to determine".
But if i could find up the coin's origin, date and mint in just 2 minutes while having no experience with colonial spanish cob, he surely could have too...
Is this a way to protect himself in case he get called out because he know he is selling not legit stuff? Very well could be. That was my main concern at least : an usually honest guy but who bought some repro and sold it under a vague denomination to dodge accountability.

What do you think brother?
