I hunted for 25 minutes on my lunch break the other day and found a KGIII 1774 copper its my oldest coin now beating my half real by 1 year. On my way home I hunted for an hour and got my first half dime a 1830 and I think a 1 reale but they were both burnt in a fire I also got a musket ball a small buckle and two flat buttons, not to bad for less than two hours. I also found a new site near a chicken house that has gave me five buttons and lots of pipes stems one with a date of 1787 on it so hope it will give up some coins soon. HH!!

Those are great finds and congrats on your new record for oldest coin. Records are great, as it always gives you a goal no matter how many times you break it.
 
That's a beauty.

Its pretty close to the real thing, it would be hard to tell the difference, this guy knew his onions :thumbsup:
 
Great job on that eggzellent KG III. It's even better than the 1775 KG III that I found last week. :thumbsup:
