1745 8 Reales and a Mystery Coin

[graderman]

I found a 1745 8 Reales in pretty bad shape. I also found another coin I can't identify. These coins were found about 6 inches apart in the yard of an old farmstead in Missouri. The first two photos are of the 1745 8 Reales and the other 2 are of the coin I can't identify. Does anyone know what it is? These coins were found yesterday (3/11/12).

I suspect they are both modern tokens.

How can i find out for sure what they are. The old man that used to live their traveled all over the place and bought sold all kinds of stuff. He died about 5 years ago and the farm was sold to my boss. My boss was contacted by the old mans daughter shortly after he tore down the house asking if he found any old coins in the house. I wonder if it could be these coins.........

Just looking at the pictures you can tell, the metal underneath the first one is blistering out of the top layer, they are both copies

This might be why they were buried (I buried a 1 pound GB fake by my house)
