1946? Wow, that's old for my area! I can't fathom anything from the 1700s. Excellent! Monty

Don, congrats. You have found another real. This one is a pillar type from Ferdinand VI or Philip V, they overlaped in 1746 I can't see your picture too clear but it looks like Ferdinand on the side oposite the dated side. Congrats on an awesome find...Lance

Nice find. What is the history there? Could these both be from a shipwreck?

there is a old fort about a mile away
i have not heard of any ship wrecks around that area but there was a lot of shipwrecks at the mouth of the river system I've been searching
i belive that the coins i've been finding were lost by fishermen a lot of fishing and logging around here
in those days
