Nice, but that's a foreign coin. I thought at first it was gonna be a
US coin.


The proper term is "world" coin. To Billy it is anything but foreign.

Also for the record, the Mexican two reales coins of the period circulated
in North America as "two bits" or a quarter dollar.

I found one dated 1682 for sale by a dealer for £65, I like mine a lot
better. Billy
