WTG, you always seem to do well, either on dry land, or at sea

In the sea there are days when you do not find gold in the mountains and always found something interesting.
greetings!

Your coin: "The rev. consists of the arms of Spain,
quartered by an ornamental cross, of which the centre is an
oval containing the three Bourbon fleur-de-lis, the whole sur-
rounded by a wreath. There are various obv. of the coins of
Ferdinand VII. They bear a small bare head from 1813
to 1816, a small laureated head from 1817 to 1824, a large
bare head from 1824 to 1827, and a large laureated head from
1827 to 1833."

And here's a lot of 6 coins, including your coin, being sold on Ebay; current bid for the 6 is US$11.50; seems like a steal at that price.
