Silver Kinda Day- Three Spanish Silver and Silver Artifacts

[mbcuce]

Had a great couple of hunts this week at a site that has produced some fantastic colonial artifacts. Silver had eluded me but I ended up getting three Spanish real in one day and then some other silver artifacts on the next hunt.

My first cut coin a quarter of a Charles III 4 Real


This 1781, 1/2 real was holed then nailed, then looks like it was in a fire


This 1 real really had it rough with severe fire damage. I was able to find faint writing on the edge to confirm what it was


Another first for me, a colonial folding fruit knife, silver blade. Makers Mark say its from Sheffield England.


And a flattened silver thimble, but its still silver.

I think that's the first of those silver knife blades I have seen here , really interesting find !

Yeah, I hadnt seen it before or even heard of the fruit knife. Lost Signal researched it and told me what it was.

Thanks so much. I bought a ring light that really helps with photographing relics.
