Dec. 8th hunt gives up Spanish 1/2 Reale LC & glass brooch , my oldest coin to date

Have been going to a spot that should be promising for something old.. already pulled 1873 & 1878 indians ..was stunned when i dug this 1/2 reale (a little ruff but Ill take her )...about 30 min. later a flat LC..along w/ some other nice keepers..HH

It might be worn, but looks like you can still get the date. 1781? Is that right? Congrats on your oldest so far!

Thanx Ol dude It is 1781 ...this site has been a challenge .square nails , alum. cans .iron bits....Did get some nice iron relics will get pics in future. It is finally paying off.
