Oddly enough, the coin may be from Spanish America, i.e. anywhere south of the US. Might take a bit of research. 02:29, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Hmm, I never would have thought Australia. Might want to scan the other side of the coin as well to make sure.   02:44, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * This is a very beat up version of the coin. My copy has little, if any, wear 'n tear--Thanatos 02:47, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

 * More. This is fun. 02:54, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I enjoy it too. Perhaps you can shed light on this?   02:56, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * If you read my comment after that, you would have noticed something like that happened to me and my dad. Anyway, I want to add more to my gallery on my userpage. Maybe if I put enough on, I can justify moving said gallery to its own page.--Thanatos 03:00, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Arrr, matey, 'tis a Piece of Eight! (Fun fact: the Spanish Milled Dollar became the basis for the U.S. Dollar when the country was founded. The practice of dividing a dollar into 8 pieces (rather than 100 cents) continued on the New York Stock Exchange until the 1980s.) --Tracer (talk) 00:25, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
