Spent a couple hours after work hitting a community park that used to be a school . According to a old map I found before it was a school ,a feed mill and tenant house stood there in the early 1800s. Didn't find much old stuff because of all the fill used to level out the ground when the school was built in the 1940s. But there where pockets of high ground with no fill . In those spots I found older stuff , buttons , iron etc . In one of those spots I popped out my oldest silver to date and what great detail it has . It ended up being a 4 silver night with my girlfriend scoring her first ever silver . A man's sterling wedding band .

Congrats. A pillars and globes real is at the top of my bucket list
 

Congrats to you and your girlfriend on some great finds.
 

Very nice mate.
 

Congrats on the old half real and the other nice finds
 

Awesome find! Reals are always a welcome sight, especially a Ferdinand VI type. Congratulations!
 

1756,, now that is old,,
You're going to have to dig some to get there again.
Congrats to you and your lady on an outstanding hunt.
 

Way to go! That's a heck of a nice old silver, I'd love to find one of those. Congrats to both on all your finds
 

That spanish silver is a killer find. Looks like a great hunt, your research paid off handsomely.
 

Wonderful Ferdinand VI. And the globes and pillars is such a great design. The pillars representing the Straits of Gibraltar and the globes the old and new world. Nice little piece of history
 

Sweet looking 1 Reale!

Steve
