Hi, I am James from Malaysia. Does anyone know the value for a 8 Reales from year 1808 (Ferdin vii Dei Gratia)? The coin condition is superb. Thanks

To me this looks fake, and I'm no expert.

From Numista there are two portraits for this year

Neither of them look anything remotely like yours.

Like I said, I'm not expert and maybe someone with more knowledge will say otherwise, but.... it doesn't look good to me.

You should first establish if this coin is genuine. There are many threads on this forum that discuss how to examine an 8 reales coin of the Spanish Empire for correct features.

If you can determine the coin's authenticity then this site can provide a general value.

Thanks for the input guys! I hope it is real. This coin actually belongs to my mum who got it from my grandfather, who was a fishmonger.

Compare yours to the Mexican 8 reale (mint mark Mexico on yours) of 1808.It is different than the Spanish 8 reale (mint mark Madrid) of 1808.
