Hello all hope your all out swinging in this great November northeast weather !
I had a little time before sun set today so I stopped at an old site near home near a lake I walked to the top of hill above the lake looked down at the lake great views. Started swinging.
One beaver tail after another. They were jingling in my pocket so I said to myself. If I pick up all the beavers I might get a reward. ! Then a three coin wheat spill old soaking now.
Then on the way out I hit a screamer 82 on my gamma 6000 thinking it's a can I pinpoint and dig it out pops a 1852 Mexican 2 reale. I'm sitting there looking at it in the dirt and I say what is that ? No way my first reale it felt great I was as excited as so kid getting a gift. I am a simple guy who takes simple pleasure. Thanks for reading. HH gl. Eastcoast image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

That is a stunning coin. I've never seen one of them before. The motifs seem so early american...like some wild cross between a vermont copper/fugio and an early silver dollar. I wouldn't be able to take my eyes off that for weeks. A big congrats!

Now that's a really cool find. I've found all sorts of foreign silver coins but nothing that old. Yep,, even with the hole,, that's a keeper. Congrats

Heck I was hooked after I took my 1st detector out and pulled over $5 in clad and a big old 6" washer. Congrats on pulling that dream coin.
