2BUCKET LIST COINS!!! 1875 20 CENTER..AND 1799 2REALE

[Vino]

Today went back to the pond were I found the 8 reale a few months ago.
It was really hot, and things were slow. So I decided to go into the woods a little to get out of the sun.
I am so glad I did.. 5 minutes in there I get real nice high tone on the CTX 1345/1246. New it was going to be silver or a LC, it said 6inches, so I take my time and cut a nice plug flip it over a right there was a handsome guy with a big nose looking right at me..LOL the 2reale!!! This is my first 2reale, found half ones 1reales, cut 4reale, and my big 8reale..
You know I was happy..
Especially since I whatched CJON, pull a 1728 Pistareen out right in front of me at this site with my machine!!!! Lol.
So now I am really excited and I am going to slow down and really pound this area.. About 20min later I get almost the same signal, and my heart is pounding, it tells me this one is 8inch down, i cut the plug and its even deeper. I found it and take it out I look at it a i think its a one reale..
I wipe a little dirt of and see seated liberty, and say oh a quarter cool.
Put it in my bag and keep detecting.
Not much after that.
So I go to my truck and text Bill D a pic of the 2reale. Then he calls me and were talking. I tell him i also found a seated quarter and i grap it out of my pouch and say hey it seems smalller? Thats weird..
I turn it on to the back a can just make out 20 ce..
I say get the hell out of here, its a 20 center... I always wanted to find one since i started detecting. After I found my first 2center, i found out they made different monies..lol
2 cents, 3cents, half cents, half dimes and the elusive 20centers!!!!
Now my weird cents are COMPLETE. .LOL.
Thanks for looking and enjoy the pics.

That's a beautiful 2 real, and finding a seated is a great find too--and having it be a 20c is AMAZING! Thanks for posting these finds. I'm in a slump, but seeing things like this helps keep the dream alive haha!

What an awesome day George! A hearty congratulations on not just one, but two fantastic finds. If you had posted just one of these it would have been a super day. Finding both in the same day in my book has to deserve a banner nomination. So my vote is in. That Karma is one powerful thing.

Vino, you never cease to amaze me with your spectacular finds.

Thanks J.
Glad i could motivate you. .
I was in a slump also.
Nice way to come out. Lol

I know that you have been looking for the 2 real, and what a nice one you have found, but to ALSO find a 20 center, dang man. It has been a long time since I saw one posted. Congrats on once again making everyone jealous!

Spectacular finds George.

Banner find IMO.

 

[Captain Caveman]

I can't believe that you found a 20 cent piece! OMG! That is awesome. I didn't even bother putting 20 cent piece on my bucket list.

Slow I believe that I was the blindman that didn't see the S not Vino. So let me thank you from the bottom of my heart for pointing out MY MISTAKE.Thank You. FYI I had eye surgery on my right eye a couple of months ago and found out yesterday they now are recommeding surgery on my left eye. So maybe after that is done I won't miss that S again. But again Thank You Slow.

Hey TBD...If you give me a minute, I can point out some of your mistakes...

George, that is only the second 20 cent piece I have ever seen posted. That one is banner for sure. The 2 reales with the Lima mint mark is a sweet find. I have found about 65 pieces of Spanish silver over the last 25 years, but only 5 of them have been 2 reales. You certainly have a golden horse shoe around your neck. It's remarkable to walk into the woods (even on a good spot like your pond site) and walk out with two nice coins like that, especially if those coins were your only two keepers!

I think we differ on our opinion of a slump lol

The bad thing for most of us is that the best is yet to come from the pond. Can't wait to see it.

Thanks Cryer,
The 20center was just a wish.
Lol.

 

[Scrappy]

Thanks Steve.
Its all about location right?
Thats why we work on good permission. Takes time, but so worth it, sometimes. Lol
George

Yes. My latest permission took 5 months and 10 board and panel meetings. But as you know one permission leads to another. Lol

I thought the reale was a Mexico mint mark?
