It's been almost a year since the 1715 tricentennial Royal was found; however, using new equipment, we recovered an amazing coin that has left us speechless. Very similar to the first coin recovered on 6-17-15, the coin is a very rare Royal 1 escudo minted in Mexico City in 1714. In addition 28 small silver coins have been recovered within only 1 or 2 GPS numbers of the 2015 find, and we are still finding more everyday. We have been excavating a crack in the limestone 20 ft long, for three days, and there are still hits everywhere.
This year we have also found 13 pieces of worked silver and 3 pieces of kang hsi.
This time last year we had 14 holes dug; this year we have almost 300.
Going to be a good season.
