Can anyone tell me what this is, there’s not much to go on. Not sure if the pic came up

Looks like it could be a sea salvaged Spanish or Colonial 1 or 2 reales? Possibly a somewhat round cob?
Pretty cool..

Thank you

It appears to be a sea salvage silver cob coin dated 1751.

Too thin for a cob, isn't it?

OP, can we get a weight?

Edited to add, maybe

Mexico City 1731 cob.

Weigh for denomination. It's corroded, so lost some weight. A 2-Real would probably weigh 5-7 grams, a 1-Real, half of that.

I don’t have a scale, it was my dad’s, don’t know where he got it.

Since it appears to be a cob, take this with a grain of salt, but if it’s roughly the size of a dime… 1 reale
If it’s the size of a quarter… 2 reales
