Hello friends! :hello:
This morning I could escape for two hours in the nearby fields to work, just wanted to go hunting in an area where last month found much pottery of the 17th century, these fields have given me many surprises (last month I could find a ring and one Medieval buckle) .
finds today :
1_ Obverse of a silver peseta of 1869.
2 - Reverse of silver peseta.
3- one hammered.
4 - findings of all ages.
5 - Front of a Spanish cob. (Reale of King Philip V)
6 - Back of Spanish cob.
7 - Total Spanish coin .

greetings ! :wink:
