Unfortunatly...not mine.
I don't know anything about old world stuff but I would guess 1500's?

well from the cross on the reverse it looks like an old europein coin and from the numbers on the observe looks like it was made in 1712 (maybe not that sure)
roaddevil
hmm the design does say 15th - 16th century

Looks like a Spanish 1712 silver "cob" 8 reales from Philip V.

Spanish coins were used extensively in the British New World colonies.
