any ideas guys
 
All I did was search goggle images with EXAMO and come up with this, it looks like it might turn out to be real, replica, or fake Spanish cob:

I am no expert but I have a fair amount of experience with coins etc. If you want my opinion....I would say....One looks a bit too good and cast and the other looks cast....not struck. If you want to take more pics or send them to me to check out further...that would be great.

Nice finds in any case!
 
What photos are you referring too ? Diggervance's or Ant's ? They both posted two ... and Ant's is definitely just a replica example just for comparison purposes . That being said I also have a fair amount of coin knowledge under my belt and Diggervance's looks like a modern replica that was cast and not struck due to straightness of the strike and the overall evenness of the strike . The same goes for the even thickness of the coin or token itself . In short it just looks too perfect to have been struck . IMHO, Woodstock

I am in total agreement with you! I thought I said the same as you did.
