Wrap up of today's 5 hour hunt today in New Jersey.
1822 Coronet Large Cent, undatable Braided Hair Large Cent (1840-1857), 5 buttons and what seems to be a 1621-1665 Spanish Colonial Philip IV Silver Cob.
Any Spanish Cob experts on the forum? Any info on the cob would be greatly appreciated!
** update - a few people sent me links and photos and it looks like the cob I dug yesterday is a Philip IV 1621-1665 Spanish 1 Real Cob (based on the weight which is 3-4 grams). It's believed the cuts are from the original creation of the cob and not from a cut occurring later.
