Busted my silver coin slump with an old one.
We have been hunting construction sites a lot lately.
Went out yesterday after work, and hunted for a few hours in the rain.
It was drizzling on the way there. We thought it was going to quit. Right after we started hunting, the bottom fell out.
It was worth it.
My buddy got a nice 1842-0 Seated Quarter, and I dug a very worn Carolus half-real.
Also managed to dig another clay marble, and what I think is a thin brass ring. Not sure about the other 2 finds.

Good day when Spanish Silver turns up.

Not sure of the use of those brass rings but I don't think they went on the finger.

A little too fancy to be a tire weight?

Nice going, I'd be really smiling to get a Spanish Silver.

Great job on the Spanish. I love coins with some personality and that baby has it. It's got some tales to tell

The clay marble is cool as heck. The Spanish silver is on everyone's bucket list so you did great. Hey folks, if you haven't heard, CONSTRUCTION SIGHTS ROCK !!! I always carry my gear with me in case I run across some dirt being moved. I'll pounce on them sights every chance I get. Well done.

Sweet Spanish silver!! I'd hunt all day long in a downpour if I knew I would find Spanish silver.
That seated would work too.
