I'm afraid that's a modern tourist 'novelty'.

This, from CoinQuest:


https://coinquest.com/cgi-bin/cq/coins.pl?coin=16277

"Peru EXANO / REXANO Fake 8 Reales (Counterfeit) 1736
There are no genuine coins with an EXANO inscription. This is a fake, meant to fool tourists and novelty hunters. It is worth zero. Sometimes they are painted gold to make them look a little better.
The coin mimics real Spanish cob coins from Peru and Bolivia."
