Well well well, look what popped up at the clad fest today :)
Any idea on a date range? Says 17... then trails off that gives a 100 year window hah.
Pretty surprised to see it. Even got inscribed by "Lesche" since it was only 2-3" down and sounded like a near surface modern quarter, ugh.
Got a bit of a bend in it likely from a loader or skidsteer that was operating in the area.

I see it has the mexico city mint and looks to be a 1 reale, buts thats all I can really see. I can't wait to find myself a nice old silver with a hole so I can make a necklace out of it. Nice find!! Congrats
