Eight reales silver cob

Post by Gibby1314 » Sun Jul 15, 2018 10:00 am

Hi
Wondering if anyone has any information on this coin?
If it is a real coin or not?

Not sure if pics are good enough.
It says “Eight reales silver cob” on top.
And “peso bout barre dargent” on bottom
Thank you.

If it says "8 reales silver cob" then it's not real .. it's a tourist copy.
