The reales look good considering they were in the same hole with the coppers. Great finds!

Great coin spill! Good condition considering they were in salty mud.
Did you also dig a few steamers from the muck for dinner? That would be my kind of a hunt! Coins and clams!

Nah, steamers out of that mud are very bad, I think the mud is even killing em....lol

Only the counterweight was in the mud... The coins 12 in all were not near any water. I let my buddie dig the hole a bit more after I pulled 10 coins, and he pulled another large cent and another reale (smaller than both others). Best day so far......... ;-)
