The owner of the old hotel called me and asked if I had any luck ,I told yes I great time . I decided to make a shadow box with some of my finds , including two 1/4 reale , minie balls , musket ball, cross pendant, eagle buttons and a copper powder flask. The owner stated that he would display it a bar / restaurant which he is building on the old hotel site.

Good for you!

Many would just hide their finds! You're adding to the integrity of the hobby. Make sure you take pictures and post them so we can enjoy as well!

Good luck to all,

That's a great gesture Jimzz, I have no problem giving up relics since I am a coin shooter, but' I'd have a problem putting those Spanish silvers in the display. I think I'd make a copy on a copier and cut them out for the display. Is this going to remain your property on loan? Just remember the old saying possession is 9/10th the law.
