man to bad that "X" was carved on that second coin yikes.

 

I'm not sure about the authenticity of the 1776 coin. I think there have been several images of similar coins posted here that were cast copies or fakes. Don't take my word for it. Maybe someone who knows more than I will chime in.

Both look fake to my eye , cast copies

 

The 1776 coin is definitely a fake, not sure on the other, don't know much about Spanish coins

 

The Mexican 8 Real is fake. The wear on the the reverse is inconsistent, only some of the high points are worn, but other are not. On the obverse the lines on the copy are just too sharp when you compare it to the wear on the portrait.

 

Oh, well. Got in a grab bag lot. Better luck next time

 

Both look fake to me.
