    Fake 8 Escudos dammit

    about 7.5 grams weight.
    Found it on a beach that has produced real 1/2 reales and spanish olive jars, beads, etc., most stuff from Seminole Indian Wars time period, but is an aboriginal midden site that dates from 250AD through historic times.
    I can't believe someone would bother to do this. Oh well. Hope they got their jollies, I posted it over on Son's Anderson's board.
    It's not marked copy and doesn't look like the "disney" pirates caribbean 1736 Lima fake coin.

    I have the replica set with similar ones in it. The one you have is worth about 2 bucks.

    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    Thanks, BCH. That's a lot more info on this particular coin, in fact looks like the exact coin. I do wonder why there is no "COPY" on it, it's so shiny it is probably new and not pre '74 or whenever the date copy should be put on it........ I'm thinking of ballpeening it, LOL.
