This local park in NW Florida, I have hunted many times over the last several years, seems to always have something interesting. Found a total of 86 coins all clad of 1-$1 SBA, 16-quarters, 16-dimes, 8-nickels & 45-cents for a $-total of $7.45 and a "Large Replica Spanish 8-Real", which was about 3 or 4 inches in the ground, so had been there for awhile. It also looks like it was marked "copy" at one time and someone tried to buff it out- there is likely less of these in the ground vs Real ones:laughing7: - No pun intended.

Nice finds ! By coincidence, yesterday was Susan B. Anthony's 200th Birthday! She must have been thinking of you.

Hey, JTG - Thanks for the comment, I was not aware She was born 15 February 1820, and Yes I found it yesterday. I know that a lot of people believe in "Numerology" and that we ALL are connected in the "Oneness" as described by the Universal "Law Of One". I am not an avid "follower" but I do believe (and have read) the LAW OF ONE, which clearly believes in the CREATOR, which we Christians call GOD. Happy Hunting, my friend.

PS - JTG, I cleaned Susan (1979-P First Year Issue) up and gave her a "bath" just for you:
