Awesome, I agree Banner!

Awesome finds! The copper looks more like a William III to me than it does a George III. That cob is SWEEEET! Congrats!

I was wondering that. I just put it up against a KG III and it's different.

That's an absolutely amazing find Joey!!! I'm definitely voting banner on this one. Its very rare to see a complete 8 reale cob found except as a shipwreck coin. My hat's off to you buddy, and glad to see all your research and hard work paid off. Love all the other finds too including that 1650-1700 latten spoon bowl. Again, congrats on an unbelievable day!

Excellent recoveries! That cob will look great in your collection. Hope the weather stays fair and you can get back out. My vote is in

I agree Joey. Check it out a little more closely and you may find that its about 75 years older than you thought.

No Doubt about it, that is a BANNER coin. What a find!
That is about as good as it gets right there, Congrats. I would say thet the rest of your finds are not too shabby as well, I would be very happy with just those.
OK enouph yammering, got to put my vote in.

I agree the other finds were great but that silver is beautiful. I would tell the hunt club they were right. It seems to be hunted out. I bet you find much more there. Looks like a great spot. Not pack your water and a snickers and go back!
Congrats Joey.

Thanks Bill. For all of the research I've done on my own county, I was always end up detecting somewhere else. It felt good to stay close to home and dig something good.

That's right, latten not pewter. I always forget that
