Just to show that we have a few Spanish here in England as well. Both coins have been in my collection since 1990, that was a good year! The 8 Reales I found in Cornwall after a ripping storm one night. I didn't think it was anything other than a piece of lead until I got back in to the light - what a shock!
The 2 Escudos I think is from Bogota. This I found in an old harbour along with many coins from the 17-18th century. I think this is very high on my best coin ever found list.
Hoping someone will help with a good ID for these.
