A contemporary copy of an 18th century silver Portuguese coin; probably a 200 reis coin of Ioannes V dating from 1706 - 1750. The coin is crudely cast in lead and there is a bend and crack in the flan. The reverse of the coin is almost worn smooth. Measurements; diameter 27.7mm, thickness 2.8mm, weight 14.58g.
Obverse: IOANNES V D G PORT ET [ALG] REX. Crowned arms of Portugal flanked by four rosettes on the right, and illegible markings on the right as viewed.
Reverse [IN HOC] SIG[NO VINCES]. Maltese cross with a quatrefoil or flower in each angle.
See https://coinquest.com/cgi-bin/cq/coins.pl?coin=10164 which suggests that the size and obverse legend is consistent with a 200 reis coin.

Lead alloy coin. A probably cast flan, perhaps intended to imitate a silver or gold Celtic coin. Numerous modern forgeries of Iron Age and Anglo-Saxon coins distributed in areas of heavy detectorist activity are thought to come from a ‘mint’ in the Grimsby area, and may reflect rivalry between detectorists.

DENO-BBE206 notes: "Between 1751 and 1816, very few silver coins were minted in Britain due to the financial effects of fighting foreign wars. There was a lack of silver available for minting coins, but many silver Spanish American dollars that had been taken from raided Spanish ships. Royal Mint rules at the time prevented the mint from purchasing silver at a price higher than 5s 2d per ounce, a price much lower that the value of silver, and therefore the Royal Mint could not use these dollars to make new British money. As a result, private tradesmen began stamping Spanish American dollars themselves for use as tokens to conduct trade and pay their workers." It is likely that this coin is a contemporary forgery and was once silvered with the intention to deceive. Other contemporary forgeries of Spanish American 8 reales include DEV-7CF805 and LVPL-454467.
