Found this at a relatives in Kentucky!
1792 4 reales Carlos the 4th
Worn pretty good on the darker side. I found it half in the ground (silver part) and the other half out of the ground! Pretty cool. Wonder whose pocket it fell out of?

very nice find! Maybe the moles pushed it to the surface? *L* Sometimes severe freezing and thawing will move coins closer to surface. Or they dumped dirt at that location from a very old place as topsoil. Why ever it was on top - Congrats!
