Fun facts about Carlos III ( The man on the coin ) that have surprised me and did not know very well ... :read2:
1 - This coin is of the same year that he died 1788. :-\
2 - It was uglier than a cow in his arms ..... but very intelligent. :laughing7:
3 - In association to the emancipation of USA (says Wikipedia) and explained below:

A little coin but great stories it holds. :wink:

It was 5 last year & 1 to Dad, so 6 for the team last year :) (maybe you were thinking of Celtic Gold Coins (3) or Georgian Gold Coins (3).)
 
That's some fine hunting. Naturally i like the gold coin best.

OK ... are six gold coins in the last year for the Crusaders....awesome. :o
I have to buy the "Gold Max Power" and make a trip to UK Summer ..... Here a hard time finding gold coins, I think it does not hunt any more. :'(
 
Jo no parlo català. Jo parlo espanyol de Mèxic. Molt bonic monedes. Quina és la història de la zona? Close as I can get to a translation. Bienvenidos a Banner!!

6 in one year,
we are never likely to beat,
it nearly doubled our gold coin collection.
Don't come over here thinking its any easier, it really isn't :hello:

I know ... it is never easy , in fact, is to visit to London .... visit in 2004 and I really liked .
 
No offense, Hispan. My wife is Mexican. I'm fairly fluent in Mexican Spanish, but I responded in Catalan to see what the difference in language would be. (A lot of us know how translate any post into whatever language on here, so many people understand it) Once again, great finds, and anything that doesn't meet your standards, send my way. I'll pay postage.
 
If I seen that in the dirt I think I could quit coin hunting!








....for at least 1 week! :thumbsup:
 
GOLD!! Nice! That's on my list... looks like you payed your dues finding the scrap too!
 
That's a fantastic find, banner all the way :headbang:
