I'm not an expert by any means, but they look off to me. I'm sure someone will know.
 
I can't pretend to know Spanish silver coins - but these do look funky to me - I'm sure the experts will weigh in before long !
 
They look a little funky to me too..Thats why im posting for my friend. .
 
There's something weird about the rim I think. Can't quite put my finger on it. Let me send my coin guy a couple pics. He will know instantly

Your friend can't post for him/herself? :icon_scratch:

Interesting finds though.
 
I'd bet my Etrac that they are fakes. The rim never looks like that...especially on an 1800's 8reale

They're fake by the way. :icon_jokercolor:

I used the old "They were in my area and I didn't find them. Combined with the ole I can tell just by looking", techniques. ;)
