Colonial Copper Coin?

[JonG]

Don't know where this one came from, or what it is. Could it be a colonial? It's a dark copper color. I had to get the light to reflect off the surface to capture the bust on the front, and that makes it look silver. The back is worn and slick. 28mm in diameter and weight 9 grams.

Thanks in advance!

Not colonial -- but a neat find not seen very often. I think it is a mid-1800s 8 Maravedis of Queen Isabel of Spain.

Spain. Queen Isabel II (1833-1868). AE 8 Maravedis 1838 F+/aVF.
