1700's Silver!!!!!!!!!! Makes me Reale happy!!!
Today was working it self out to be a bad day and then one little silver coin changed it all. Started at the "Beach of Silver" And not only was it high tide but there was another person metal detecting [banghead] [banghead] [banghead] [banghead] Left there in a hurry and headed to where I found my 1831 Large Cent. Hunted and hunted and hunted finding only 2 clad dimes. I was diggin anything above 48 VDI looking for more IH's. Then I look up and some guy is setting up cones for soccor practice [banghead] [banghead] lol so I moved away and that's where I found it!!! Got a 70 something VDI and a pull tab right near it. Dug the tab and then rescanned. Bam still there!! Dug and dug about 6 inches down I see a coin shaped item and it was so dark I thought it was a penny. Rubbed some dirt off and noticed it wasn't. Thought I had a worn seated till I saw the seal!!! 1786 SPANISH REALE!!!!!!!! [thumbsup] [thumbsup] I did the happy dance right in front of the whole soccor team lol [cool] [cool] Dug about 50 more pulltabs after that looking for more hidden goodies but gave up and called it a day. So now I have officially Broke into the 1700's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please anyone that can help me with identifying the reale would be a big help for I know nothing about them. It's the size of a dime and I think it is a 1786. could be a 1785. I am so pumped!!! Going back there again SOON lol
Thanks for looking and HH Woody420
