I would like help identifying a coin I recently found on my property. It appears to be of Spanish American origin, but beyond that, I have no clue.

It has the style of a gold cob coin of Spanish America. The date is to the upper left of the shield and I see a 16xx.

Better light and pictures should tell us the full year and the mint. What is the weight and diameter and thickness?

It seems almost in suspiciously good condition.

It looks like an 'tourist' replica.
Or something part of a game:

I had to reduce the picture to post here. I am guessing the game replica is most likely. I will try to get an accurate weight.
