1753 PILLAR One Reale (NEW PICS)

[umrgolf]

Yes!! the J-team(Sentinel and myself) scored our second 1753 pillar one reale in two weeks (Josh's was in comparable shape, but holed) This was found at a NEW site which is nothing more than a big vacant lot in the middle of town... I dug somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 pieces of trash, but knew it would pay off since it was both a union and confederate camp.. I was more than shocked to see spanish silver come out of the ground today. It gave a copper penny reading at 4 inches and when I popped the plug the signal disappeared. I looked down and removed a small piece of iron and BAM the signal was back.. Expecting to reach down and pick up my 1970 penny, I couldn't believe the silver disc I was looking at.. Also today, I dug my first Enfield bullet along with 4 .69 caliber bullets and a few other odds and ends..


NEW PICS-Mine on LEFT, Josh's on RIGHT (notice we have different mintmarks.. mine is mexico city and Josh's has an I w/ a dot over it next to an M ) Thank you MackayDon The mintmark on Josh's is Lima, Peru

You're a Spanish silver machine! Some days you have to work harder than others but all that matters in the end is the post showing who the boss is. The PA Bros will probably be calling me Mr. Trump very soon.

Re: 1753 PILLAR One Reale

Yeap, I told you that spot of mine would produce for us Super sweet finds for ANY day. That's
a very respectable amount of Civil War bullets and a Reale to boot!
BTW, that's a Toe tap (the brass w/ holes in it)....I told you that earlier but I don't think you heard me b/c of the T.V..

We've been on a roll and it continues!

P.S.--thats hilarious that its the same denomination and the same year

The PA Bros Wonder how they did today.. I think the J-team will compete well with KKC and the 2 Iron Brigades this year

You're too one dimensional x 2 .... so how could you ever compete being limited to Spanish silver and Confederate buttons? I might as well have the Iron Bros trophy engraved right now.

WooooHOOOOOO, you dug what we all seek every weekend! The J-Team is top-notch and will compete with KKC. We hunt the same kind of sites, so it will be fun to see who finds what. You guys have always been my friends on here and I hope you all have a great year. It looks to be a dandy already!

Keep the passion high!

Great coin, great find!
On the obverse at the top "VTRA QUE VNUM" is Latin for "both are one", meaning that both worlds, the Americas and Asia/Europe shown on the two crowned globes, are in reality one world.

WTG Jeff!!! You definitely have a HOT HAND lately. I figured Josh would recognize the toe tap. Does your Enfield have a base mark in the cavity? Congrats, Quindy.

Are you sure that's 1753 and not 1793? Either way it's a great find!
