I've been going back over the county parks which were 1800's farms and am having luck with the 800 in 4 kHz.
The 1 reale is a repeat post for the sake of this silver post. The rings are plated so nice to find but not as exciting as a silver coin. The LC's, the seated 20 center, the merc, and the rings were all in the 2 acre front yard of the main house at the one park. The reale was at a different park. Thank you for looking and good luck to everyone. I've attached a link below for this park.

Nice! Those 20 cent coins don’t show up very often! Nice save! Can you post a close up of that coin? Largies look good too! Congrats!

Man that is some kind of park you have! That .20 seated is insane, I have never found one (or even a seated for that matter) but I can only think of seeing maybe two of them in the past. Congrats!
