The KKC team got out to a new site and it produced in a big way. The site was located in a soybean field and by the lack of targets at the end of the day, we concluded that it was hit before. It didn't stop me from staying positive though and I was soon welcomed with a piece of pie. :wink: The video shows my raw passion at work. ;D :laughing7: :headbang:

I also got a tombac button, 3 musketballs, and part of an arrowhead.

This is a great way to start off the 2010 season. This is my 4th 2-Reales in a couple years. :headbang: Last year I started the year off with an 1810, but had to top it with this 1795. :laughing7:

Keep the passion high! :headbang:

Kirk

This is the first time I saw the video. :laughing9: You can't even understand what we're saying because we're talking too fast. :laughing9: I think you need to use my video format converter software, which should make the audio more in-tune with the picture. :dontknow:

1795 is the year what we're looking for in coppers and silver! You finally got the monkey off of our backs with that recovery!

Let's find some coppers tomorrow at the other site!!!

You guys need to pick up the energy a little bit. Way too casual for such an incredible find.

I thought the camera man was going to have to tackle the digger to get another shot of the coin.

Awesome video. Just for comparison, could you tape a pull tab find.

Good luck on the copper!

LOL, that's what I was thinking. Good job Colonial dudes! :hello2:

Isn't it amazing that one can wonder around a wide open field and find money? Not just any "money", but a silver coin from hundreds of years ago. How the hell did that get there? Some guy stop to load his pipe, pull it out of his pouch/pocket and drop a coin? Like, right there? In that spot?

Amazing.
