Looking to have coin I found identified 0

[trevor howell]

Hello everyone,

     I recently found this coin at my grandfathers in some of his things. I was wondering the significance or history behind the coin, I am happy to research it myself if somebody could identify it for me, I’ve googled it and there are various coins it could be but I don’t feel like I am making any headway with it. It doesn’t matter if it is fake or not, it’s special to me. Just looking for information on what it is or what it is a copy of. It’s surprisingly light for its size. Any information would  be appreciated. 
 

Thank you,

Trevor

It appears to be a Spanish 8 escudos. I have a suspicion this is a replica, but not my area of expertise. Do you have a digital scale by chance? Can you weigh it to two decimal places in grams? Also a measurement of the diameter in CM would be helpful.

I will do that as soon as I get home! Thank you!

Looks fake. But since that doesn't matter to you, that's fine--that saves you the hassle and cost of having it inauthenticated.

Appears to be a brass imitation sold to tourists as souvenirs.

Since it is obviously not gold, there is zero point in exploring that possibility. It's a souvenir coin of minimal to zero value. It could easily show up in a junk token tray for 50 cents.
