The one with the shield on it. I had someone ask a forum group on facebook I'm part of with the exact coin, except in a little lower condition. No one could ID it, but that's the same coin right there.

Looks like a worthless brass replica of a Spanish gold coin.

There is a neat Tibetan coin in this lot, two Chinese cashes, and an earlier Indian/Nepali coin, but the rest is grade-A crap. Bid if you like Asian coins.

Specifically, it's a base-metal replica of a "Reyes Catolicos" silver real of Ferdinand and Isabella.We've seen them in various qualities here on the forum. THe commonest type seems to be the ones that are thick, brassy and have legends so badly blundered it's hard to tell what language it's supposed to be. The one in the picture is better quality, but I'm still pretty sure it's not genuine. We'd have to see pics of the actual coin in question to make a judgement about it.
