Went out early this morning and found 2 1700's coins.

I got back out this morning for a few hours. Went to the same place I have been detecting for the last couple weeks. First good hit was a very badly deteriorated Mass copper (at least that's what I think). They use fertilizer here so I was not surprised. After several junk targets I dug this 1787 2 reale. I was pretty happy as I have not found one of these in 10 years. I'm actually thinking about buying a new detector for next year. I forgot how much I loved finding these old coins and relics. I also found a nice crotel bell but did not take a picture. Have a good day.

Nice digs man..

I will say this your finds are suspicious seeing how clean your coins are and the pile of dirt looks patted down and a seam on the Reale..

I was surprised to see the reale come up in such good shape as well. I can tell you it is what it is. I have no reason to "fake" a find. I do this for fun. That's it.

Are you some kind of metal detecting private eye? This is funny! I hunt on private property. I can wash my hands as much as I want. You should try it :) Seriously, there really wasn't a reason for you to be so rude when replying to my post. If you don't like something just don't respond. Be a grown up :)
