Silver spanish cob? HELP

[XxGHOSTxX]

I found this lying on the sidewalk in Reading PA. It could have came from someone's colletion or it could just be a cheap fake. I did the ice cube trick to see if it's silver and I'm 99% sure it is. Melted very quickly. Ive just never seen any coin like this before.

So it just a silver replica of some old coin? No value except for the silver content? Oh yeah it weighs 20.73 grams.

Thanks alot for that. Now with silver being . 80 cents a gram it's a $16 find. Not to bad.

Someone made a cheap copy and you think they used silver? Fake gold rings aren't made of gold.
