    Anybody know how much these coins are worth?

    The Mexican 8 Reales has a chainmail effect edge, something like this:

    ﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾﴾

    And the Peruvian coin has an edge something like this:
    ___________
    ●●●●●●●●●●●
    ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾

    The writing on the Peruvian reverse is: 1840 REP.PERUANA.M.8R.10.D.20 G.M.B
    The Mexican reverse is reasonably legible
    Both have small S's on the reverse which are visible in the scans

    Thanks in advance for your input.

    The Peru 8 reales is worth about $30 - the Mexico 8 reales about $12.
