Spanish silver and more

[sscindercoop]

Today I hunted a field with kieser sousa rip. I wasn't finding anything but deep garbage. Rip was of to a great start with a watch key and a cool button. I moved to a different area and I got a shallow coin signal dug down about 3 inches and popped out an 1808 Spanish reale. My first Spanish silver I think its a one reale. The only other old coin I found was the copper its the same size as a large cent but it weighs a lot less. Any ideas on what it could be? Thanks for looking and HH.

Great old silver!

Is it just the picture, or does that copper seem to show traces of silver? If so, it's a good hint and if you can see any detail at all you have a chance to ID it.

Congrats on Spanish silver! Best of both worlds - nicely worn to add character - but with a readable date.
