Can anybody tell me anything about these two coins?

I am usually over on the sports card board, but I was just wondering if anybody could give me a little information about these two coins.

    The 1808 is a silver 8 Reales from the Potosi Mint in Spanish colonial America. The little figures punched into it are chopmarks made by Chinese merchants as it circulated in China. In this condition, it is worth about $20-25.

    The other piece is a copper-nickel commemorative Rouble from the USSR (CCCP) honoring Lenin. These are generally only worth a few dollars.
