74TH COPPER OF THE YEAR* KG I,2 IH'S & A POSSIBLE COUNTERFIET 8 REALE?

sat got out with PI JOE & BOXING 123 for a water hunt. $1.31 in clad them guys didnt do any better either.oh well we tried.
Sunday went on a solo hunt to a cellar hole.I hit this place pretty hard in the past & it shows.one musketball and a letter "M" printing key or block.
Monday got out with Gary to 2 different cellar holes.1st site gave up a 1865 IH & the King George I. 2nd site coughed up a neat victorian sash buckle and a 1904 IH.
the large disc in group picture I think is or was a counterfiet attempt.it's basically the same size & thickness as a silver dollar made from some type of white metal.i'm guessing it was an attempt at faking a 8 reale

Great bunch of finds once again!! What type of metal do you think the "counterfeit coin" is made from? Lead, pewter...... It looks really dark in the pics.
