1/2 REALE, 1 REALE, AND SOME REALLY COOL BUTTONS.

[Vino]

And also what I believe is a musket lock plate? Had a great day, with a old hunting partner TREB. He is definitely my little rabbits foot. Lol
I was at the spot that Bill D. Found his 8 reale when he came up for a hunt. No big 8s this time, but thats ok. I finally found my first 1 reale. Now I believe I have found all the reales? 1/2, 1, 2, half of a 4, and a 8.
I was doing the same thing today that I was doing the other day. I would get a signal and start opening the holes bigger, this time I was in a little trash pit. Was finding alot of pottery, pipe stems, and Iron.
The buttons I found were all non military, but they do have a nice design on them. The one I have never seen before, its a little cuff, with a gold bezel around it. Its has a Scoville bench mark. And another button has alot going on in the back.
Anyway, it was a fun day and glad to knock another one of my list.
When the lock plate comes out, I'll take a pic and post.
Maybe 1 or 2 hunts left for me.
Thanks Beez for the site!!

Another stellar hunt George! Very cool buttons, and the lock plate is pretty sweet. However, I admit I am a silver guy, so those Spanish silvers really make me drool.

Man there's some incredible history on that site and obviously a great time frame. You've really added to the Spanish count. Hope you get a few more in buddy. Maybe you should put Treb on the books if he's that lucky for you lol

You are definitely dialed in to the Spanish! I keep getting a wrong number for those, but someday soon my call will get through!

Vino,
Great saves, but you still have other denominations of reales to get if you wish them all: 1/8th, 1/4th and 3R coins exist.
Occasional, a 1/4R coin is posted on Treasure Net (like today: http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/484030-california-ghost-town-hunts.html
though I've never seen a 1/8R or a 3R coin posted.
The 3R was very unpopular and quickly phases out; replaced by the 4R.
Don.......

You know what else was unpopular and quickly phased out? The 20 cent piece and guess who found one... Lol

I had no idea there was a 1/3 or a 3. Cool man

Another typical Vino hunt! Haha. Spanish silver, buttons and gun parts. Incredible man. I think that pit area is going to have a lot of surprises in there.
