Detector(s) used
Minelab Xterra 705 w/DD coil Backup- 505,305.
First, hello everyone! This is my first finds post on this site. I've been detecting since last July and since then have made some great finds. It all started in my back yard with my first silver that happens to be a beautiful 1858 seated dime. Since that find, I've made several attempts in the woods behind my house to make another find of note...Today was the day! Please excuse the poor quality of the photos as I'm stuck using my cell phone for now but anyways to my complete surprise I managed to pull my fourth(in 16 days!)Spanish silver!!! It's a 1792 1 Reale.
