My best day in a long time. Those of you who have hunted with me may remember that I constantly whine about never finding any KG coins. I’ve seen dozens pulled... but never had the luck myself. Today was the day. We hiked into a new site and it turned into a pretty epic haul. First was the 1797 Draped. Then, down by the water I got the Civil War token (my first). After a while I got a a screaming 28-29 on the Nox and got the 1768 2 Reale...(first 2R, second Spanish)....8” over I dug the KG (my first)It is a KGII - I believe it’s 1749. Got 3 little pistol musket balls and a couple buttons as well. Covered a little over 10miles on the Fitbit in about 7 hours. Thanks for viewing and HH.

Congrats. Spanish silver is hard enough to find. That style of real is even tougher. Nice job

Congrats! Two-reales are about the biggest colonial-silver that you can find. They're a surprisingly big, heavy coin.

Quite an epic day for you congrats!!! Spanish silvers are not easy to come by! I love finding the KG's so I know what it was prob like to dig your first one! My first and second KG II's where the best the other KG's I've found have been barely identifiable. Getting one you can ID is a feat in itself!!!
