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.

Big congrats on the Reale and seated 20 center! I got an 1737 8 Reale from a jeweler who gets coins on occasion and he also saved me an 1881-O Morgan in MS 62-65 condition too which I got for 18 bux. Hope it's a VAM27 doubled ear piece for a nice 900 bux score.....

Really envy you swingers back east, so much more history. That 20 center is a rare coin to find. Congrats on some great coins.

I agree with ks coyote. This is an incredible find. Living in one of the newer states, I sometimes wonder if I should even read this site. I've found modern gold and silver jewelry but I'd be much more excited if I ever found an IH cent or silver dime.

We are very fortunate to live in a history rich area. You just never know what is going to be in the plug.
