Unfortunately I do not know any details about the coin. It appears to be silver in color, but is blackish, I'm assuming because needs to be clean?

The Jerusalem cross with lions and castles makes me think of a 8 Reales from Spain or it's colonies but the mushy details make me think fake. Let's see what our experts think.

Also, welcome to CCF and please don't clean any of your coins.

Hello and welcome.

What we have here is a "Disney pirate coin" - a replica of a gold 8 escudos of Spanish Peru, dated 1736. Obviously, it's not made of gold, so it's not genuine.

I call it a "Disney replica" because apparently they've been selling these 1736-dated coins for years, as souvenirs of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.

There's an identical replica (though not as corroded) in this old thread. For more examples across the Internet, just run a Google search for "EXANO 1736".
