Long shot on a date

[Digger54]

I figured this is a cut piece from a 2 reale based on the 2R I see. Is it possible for anyone to get a time frame on it based on what is there?

It appears to be a cut "bit" from a Charles III or possibly Charles IIII 2 reales minted in Mexico City. Time frame is 1772 to about 1808 I believe. The chin on the Ferdinand VII 2 reales from 1809 -1821 is not as close of a match to your example as the earlier Charles III & IIII.
