1698 2 Reales Cob

[toasted]

Found my first silver of the year in a big way this afternoon and its a bucketlister too. 1698 Potosi 2 Reales Spanish cob. My first reale larger than a 1. Found it on a mostly sandy bottom area of one of my water spots that tends to really eat up coppers and even this silver somewhat. Its only 4.6 grams but still larger than any of my other cobs. Still looks great to me though
