Tried to get a couple buddies to come out to a spot that seems to be heating up, but work prevailed into the afternoon for them...so i went solo...I had just dug my first piece of Spanish silver, a 1784 2 Reále one week ago, and had returned for the third time since to have a listen on this beatiful Thursday...couple flat buttons in I got a very audible 82 repeater on the ATP and plucked a 1941D Merc and happily moved on. Two thimbles come out, I move down the hill start swooping back toward the truck , Bam, Pocket watch, great signal and I start on my final approach to the truck up the last hill and a sweet but suspicious 70's 80's squeaker comes across I just instinctually dug it not expecting my second piece of Spanish silver , a 1785 Half Reále !

Congrats on the Spanish. I like the watch bezel as well. Did you spend much time looking for the rest of it?
