1837 Mexican Dollar

I recently found an 1837 Mexican (Mexicana) Silver Dollar along with a 1848 Large Cent and 1853 Seated Dime while detecting a pioneer site. Also found were coin buttons, muskettballs, Etc. I haven't been able to find any info on the 1837 Mexicana Dollar. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
 
Your Mexican dollar is a 2 reales coin. Don't know how much it would be worth but it's a darn nice find.

` Not trying to be smart or anything, but a Two Reale is about the size of a quarter. Shown in his photo by comparison to the large cent-- his coin is a lot bigger than that. This man found an "EIGHT REALE !!!" WTG ROB !!! NICE FIND !!!

As I get older it seems I get wronger <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">. I didn't know exactly what it was, the only reales I've seen in person were a couple of half reales, but I knew it was a reale of some denomination and did a search. The page I looked at had it labeled as a 2 reale. Goes to show you can't always believe what's on the internet darn it <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">.
