I found these two items this weekend at my honey hole site where I have already pulled out a draped bust cent, another 8 reale cut coin, a 1912 barber dime as well as two standing liberty quarters. The site is property around an old house dating somewhere in the 1750's and was used up until the 1940's. The eagle metal is most likely copper or bronze but I have no idea what it is? The coin is most likely a cut reale but I am having trouble discovering from where and what date range. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your top "eagle Metal" is a watch fob.
Sorry I don't know anything about the cut coin.
Cool finds..

It's an 8 but I can't tell the date because it appears to be missing

I see a Mexico mintmark so it looks like some old colonial silver...I see Hispan along the reeded edge as well.Nice coin
