[Blak bart]

My favorite might be the little broken silver ring !!

 

[villagenut]

Thats just outstanding Bart. I am really happy for you.....right place at the right time with a pirate's intuition, no luck involved

 

[Blak bart]

I think the machines are passing by the best of it now....there almost done....might as well ride the train all the way !! D.O.T. worker was there to see me pull 2 coins !! Im buying those boys beer tomorrow.....one of them was jumping around with me....he didn't even know why.

Absolutely believable! If anyone was going to do it I'd put my $ on you. You must have put a motion sensor on that stretch of the waterfront so you wouldn't miss the opportunity once they started tearing it up.
Does that group shot have 5 Spanish silver and one marevedi?
And thank you Shaggy Cannon for letting Bart in on the spill location so we could see them.

ps. That image of you kneeling in front of the machine, makes you look like you could play Lieutenant Bart in a remake of Forrest Gump.

Well some have a horse shoe jammed up the old arse it seems when it comes to having luck.
But I get the feeling that you have the the whole frigging horse up there.
Hence the question if it hurt.
Have a great sleep Bart, you've had a wonderful day and have made a memory that will last you for many moons.
Congratulations once again.

Absolutely great finds. Congratulations!

What can I say that hasn’t already been said here Bart!
Except, congratulations on your finds and for making the effort to detect a site that most folks wouldn’t even have considered detecting in the middle of a construction site.

I forgot to ask if there are dates or mints visible on the Cobb's?

 

[Blak bart]

If anything ill be bringing the road crew a couple cases of modelo on ice !! Got to give back to those guys !! They've been great !!

Im not sure yet....the little 4 reale didn't look like it would but it did so theres hope for the others that there's a date hiding under the sulfide crust !!!
