WTG on the cob, she's a beauty!

...congrats! ... That's a really nice find, surfnturf! ... looking at the cross detail, that cob was either struck at the Potosi, or, the Lima Spanish colonial mint ... definitely not Mexico (as Mexico City had a different & distinctive cross design) ... would it be possible to provide straight-on (not angled) focused, clear shots of both sides ? ... can't say for certain, but the cross details, to me, seem to indicate the Lima, Peru mint. This would be an unusual find at your location, as most Treasure Coast finds are from the Mexico City mint, with some also from the Potosi, Bolivia mint ... Lima, Peru mint finds there are scarce to rare ...

What state did you make the finds? What kind of site?

 

[Terry Soloman]

WoW! Congratulations!! Been detecting 49-years and I've never dug a Reale. Stooked for you!

 

[Sandog]

Doesn't look like the Treasure Coast to me. But those cuts sure look promising. Awesome find.

Holy sh*t SNT, what an EPIC find, CONGRATS!!

When you say "desolate" beach, do you mean that the beach was just empty/desolate because it's currently off season, or do you mean that it's really a desolate beach, i.e., one that people don't sunbathe or go to daily during the summer warm weather? Just checking for a theory I have.

Thanks Mr. whiskers I knew someone would come up with some good info on this coin. Here are a couple pics. Let me know what you think.🍻

Massachusetts 30 miles out to sea on the Gray Lady🏴‍☠
On an eroding, secluded beach.

Wow, thank you Terry. I’ve been extremely fortunate. This will be my fourth and my first 4 real! They were all found at the beach. I have also found a milled 2 real.
For me, my inner child screams, you found the Pirates treasure stash🤣🏴‍☠ and I just realized I’ve been spelling Real wrong😎 oh well that’s what you get for being a little dyslexic or a lot🍻

Definitely not that warm Florida sunshine state, just some nice cold north eastern island! Which at one point during the height of the whaling trade, it was considered the center of the world so I’ve been told. I always get worked up when I see a good cut, but as I have learned even a good 6 foot cut doesn’t mean there’s targets hard to believe but true then sometimes you hit a spot and it’s all concentrated pulling two coins, three coins sometimes in one scoop take a step another two targets you think you’re in heaven, but sometimes it’s torturous🤔💛🏴‍☠️ and then three days later the window shuts and you don’t find anything or very little.
