    Your pictures were too large to be useful. I couldn't see the "forest" for all the detailed "trees". I'm not very knowledgeable about Spanish South American coinage, but the general look and feel of these smaller pictures of your coin gives me the impression that you may have something along that line. Whether its genuine or a copy, [​IMG]

    This is a very poorly made cast copy of the 8 reale cob struck in Potosi, Bolivia in 1761. I can only assume that it is the kind of trinket made to be sold to tourist at the modern day gift shops.

    By the way - it's not gold.


    edit - oooops - should have said 1763
