Lot of 2 early-US "bits" cut from Spanish bust 8R, one with clear date 1808. 6.1 grams total. Two sharply cut pieces of slightly different sizes (each more or less a 1 real), both darkly toned and F-VF for wear, not particularly rare but very popular and seldom relinquished by the metal-detectorists who find them.
