Knowing the diameter would help.
Maybe one of the half real pieces from perhaps mid 1700's?

It's from Potosi, Bolivia. This design was used on crude hand struck cobs until 1773, when the mint started making regular coins with the king's bust instead of a cross. I've never seen a non-cob coin without the bust. The shield side should have pillars next to the shield too.

It's Spain proper - milled shield coinage, not a cob.

1/2 real, Seville mint 1730s.
