Cut silver coin

[7centsworth]

Found this cut silver coin today. I put a dime beside it for reference. Not sure what this is. I think maybe some kind of reale.

What did they use 300 years ago to get such a clean cut on metal?

Shears, i believe. Also you could just bend it...depends of the thickness of metal
