Numismat Pillar of the Community United States 1666 Posts	Posted 07/18/2016 10:37 pm The top one is a copy of a Spanish "Reyes Catolicos" (Catholic Kings) silver coin. Likely of a 2 reales, the most commonly seen denomination for such copies. I see what appears to be remnants of a silver wash in some spots, so it may very well be an old contemporary forgery rather than a modern copy. Report this Post to the Staff
