Still working the same general area were Ive found buttons, a 1794 Bale Seal and early religious medallion. Not a site that had much activity as I have found zero coppers but someone did drop this sweet little half real cob. Its my first half real cob not from Mexico City and cob #7 fty:headbang:

Thanks. Hard to believe but I have better luck finding cobs vs Pistareens and other milled Spanish silver. Maybe one day I can get my coil over something bigger than a half or one real though
oh ya !!! I love that shot. Beautiful !! I've got a treasure galleon my backyard and I can't find that many cobbs !! I'm starting to think there's a Spanish galleon in your corn field !!
 
I often tell people, after they have found their first, that the rest will come easier. You, Sir, have proven my point. Seeing the cross, after you wipe it a bit, has got to put a Big-O-Smile on your face. Congrats to you Mister.

Short of a gold coin or draped bust silver, I would not want any other coin more. Even better when you find it in an area that has not even given up a single copper
