Very cool thanks for posting!
 

These finds are amazing to me
Just the effort alone, and when the find finally comes....i bet it's a high like no other

Thanks for the link
 

Good for dan !! He works hard for it. Had lunch with him in key west a couple months ago.
 

Very nice...How is the weather holding out down there, looks like a shitstorm brewing
 

Too bad they can't talk.

What a tale they could tell!
 

Nice finds. Some of the best and worst Lima 2 escudos I have ever seen. That bottom right gold coin is interesting. It's got the old Hapsburg shield on it so it's quite old and rare in 1715 recoveries. I can't see the burgundy on it, but it might just be a Mexico 1711.
