Today I found these two coins near the foundation of a house that was built near the end of the 1700's.
One is a Spanish Colonial Portrait 2 reales Coin (Quarter) 1774 Minted in Mexico
Second is an 1814 Lower Canadian RH One Penny Token

Nice going on finding the token and 2 Reales. Also congrats on using the proper term for the Spanish coin, not many do. :)

The pic of this latest find is at a great angle, making it a bit hard to see. I'm wondering if you can see any of the "host" coin ?
"Most of this issue was struck over "guppy" tokens".

Just being curious I guess, and a more straight on pic may tell.
