1733 SPANISH 1/4 CUT COLONIAL COIN

[gwdigger]

Got out with my babe Jo Ellen today and managed to pop up a nice goody right at the end. A hard hit site but persistence paid off w/ a dated Spanish cut 1 reale. Tiny lil thing!

Got a Georgian watch winder and some other things. Wife got some later coins from a new site across the field that she stayed with. Will post a better write up later tomorrow. But this lil Spanish is a keeper for sure.

Yep, this field of rolling hills on a creek is like beach sand. Some awesome coppers have come outta here over the years. And must be getting close to 15 or so cut Spanish by now. its been a good place to try out my newer 9" HF coil. I've used it several times now and its so quiet, even with my sens on 98, that I have to occasionally wave my shovel in front of it to be sure its working. I did dig a 2" piece of a bronze ship spike at prob 14" deep and a shot gun head stamp about a foot which made me feel better about it. At one point I put on the old 9" LF coil but I cant stand the chatter so it is now officially retired. Sometimes its just difficult to accept change.
