Hello all hope your all out swinging in this great November northeast weather !
I had a little time before sun set today so I stopped at an old site near home near a lake I walked to the top of hill above the lake looked down at the lake great views. Started swinging.
One beaver tail after another. They were jingling in my pocket so I said to myself. If I pick up all the beavers I might get a reward. ! Then a three coin wheat spill old soaking now.
Then on the way out I hit a screamer 82 on my gamma 6000 thinking it's a can I pinpoint and dig it out pops a 1852 Mexican 2 reale. I'm sitting there looking at it in the dirt and I say what is that ? No way my first reale it felt great I was as excited as so kid getting a gift. I am a simple guy who takes simple pleasure. Thanks for reading. HH gl. Eastcoast image.webpimage.webpimage.webpimage.webpimage.webp

Congrats, that's great find!
 

Great find; and a rare occasion to see a coin from the Guanajuato mint in Mexico. ("G" with a small 'o' inside the "G")
The 10Ds 20Gs signifies .902777 fine silver.

Congrats on a beautiful coin!
 

That is a stunning coin. I've never seen one of them before. The motifs seem so early american...like some wild cross between a vermont copper/fugio and an early silver dollar. I wouldn't be able to take my eyes off that for weeks. A big congrats!
 

That's cool to find one way up in New York. Love the design!
 

Now that's a really cool find. I've found all sorts of foreign silver coins but nothing that old. Yep,, even with the hole,, that's a keeper. Congrats
 

Thank you all for the likes and comments. if I was not hooked , I am now !!
 

That is a gorgeous coin!! What an awesome find!! Man I hope I find any type of Reale someday. Congrats. HH
 

Very well done my man! Excellent find, congrats.
 

Heck I was hooked after I took my 1st detector out and pulled over $5 in clad and a big old 6" washer. Congrats on pulling that dream coin.
