the Seven Sorrows pendant usually depicts Mary but that looks like Jesus. This is a link to cob book auther, not sure if the book price is right. https://www.sedwickcoins.com/pboc4.htm

Thank you!

I aprecciate the information you has share.

By the way, do you know something related with the image of the pendant, I mean the image at the other Aidee of the pendant?


Thank you for the book info, as well
 

Fantastic finds. Love the hammered coin. Personally I believe the medallion is Mary. The wear on the face kinda makes it look like it's possibly Jesus, but I still believe it's Mary. The seven swords piercing her heart represents the seven sorrows she went through. Looks to be made of bronze and probably dates to the earlier part of the 1800s I would assume.

notice the tips of the cross, because they end in "balls" (Fleur de lis) and not just flat, indicate Mexico.

Mexico.....others like Seville in Spain and Potosi (Bolivia) look like this...

Coins like yours fall out of fashion during the reign of Philip V (Felipe) 1700/1746. By the end of his reign, coin mintage went from this...

...so early 1700's is the latest it could be. And since it looks to be 1 Real, I like it as 1700 to 1720 (about) Philip V. Earlier Mexico coinage often had more of a pretense to be round, but not always.
