Very nice looks like a little half reale. Sweet!! thumbsup01

I think the Spanish coin is a King Charles IV half reale.

In 1789, Charles III died and his son, Charles IV succeeded him. Both the Carolus IIII and Carolus IV varieties exist for the Mexico City mint. The portrait of Charles the III was used with the legend Carolus IV for about a year in 1789 and 1790 following the death of Charles III. In 1790 the legend was changed to Carolus IIII.

Great finds!
