Hi hunters ! :hello:
Not have much time and quickly got dark I could only be three hours in the field not very good field .. but lucky to find a coin with history, Fernando II -1479-1516 - Barcelona mint (was King who sponsored Christopher Columbus on his voyage to the Americas in 1492)
AR also a coin of King Philip IV, 17th Century and some other things.
After I went to near local beach for three hours and take 26
$ U.S., a nice 925 silver ring and a silver button and stuff ...

also a lioness with her cub in her mouth that some lost child on the beach ..

These are coins that circulated in Spain just in time to discover America .... are the ancestors of the Reale that you are in their country, but are smaller and less silver for all the silver that here had already been mined in the later Roman period .... the same for all of Europe until they started coming boats full of American silver.
