So after a long soak in mineral oil,the date is 1744 on the kg. I also made a mistake on the the reale, it’s 1778

Thanks for the vote!!! I was a awesome feeling digging that up then quite a rush seeing those coins. With the kg,it’ll be pretty hard to ever beat this hunt !! But I’ll give it a try:

I’ll probably never find another one,at least in that condition! I wonder if they put the coins in there then something happened like a fire. It’s a mystery!

Probably my fifth container,I expected just dirt or old makeup so it was a awesome sight. I’m hoping the winter will move the ground and reveal more. Anytime I hit a area where I find a kg,I go back over and over. I found a large cent there 2 years ago then nothing last year at all.
