1949 George VI Five Shillings from South Africa

I’m amazed at how large it is: the same diameter as a modern one ounce silver Krugerrand.

1808 peru Proclamation 8 Reales

Proclamation issue. Always surprised any of these exist in decent shape with the amount that were worn as jewelry, holed, or heavily circulated. This is a type I don't see very often so maybe that's why it escaped? It does have a light bit of wiping on the obverse but it's really nice.
