Dug this in a park where i have found some other old relics, but nothing like this. Looks almost too good to be true. Hope it's real though.

Si senor. Sure looks real to me. There's a guy named Don on here who is an expert. Bet he tells you the same thing...
 
That's a gnarly coin, and it looks real to me. Congrats!

I rotated them for easier viewing.ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1461209863.770859.webpImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1461209893.968581.webp
 
Put a magnet on that coin, just to be sure.
I know there are a lot of fakes out there.
I hope it's real.
Congrats
 
Nope, doesn't stick to a magnet.
 
Looks good to me - CONGRATS
 
Tis the realio dealio. imo
 
It's a 2 reale
 
That's a really great find! You never know what's going to pop out of you're next hole. How deep was it? What number did it show on your AT-Pro? Congratulations.
 
Very nice find on that great looking coin.
 
Excellent find with the ATP-congratulations! Take note Dirtstalker, you old Garrett Hater!
 
Congratz! A pre USA spanish silver! WooHoo!
 
That is the Reale Deal with a Potosi Bolivia mintmark. And it's a 2 reale to boot :thumbsup:

Dude that's killer, if you saw I just found its big brother and he misses him
Could you mail it to me ? Freaking fantastic find my friend !!!!
 
I usually just hit the like button on reales, never found one myself. But that is one beautiful coin. Congrats.
 
Good job, great shape!!!
 
"Steve in PA" is spot on; a 2R from Potosi.
The mintmark, an overlaid "TS", is found between the date and VTRA.
The assayers' initials are "JR" standing for Joes de Vargar and Raimundo de Iturraga.
Don....
 
Any idea on what it's worth?
