Re: Last Lost Coins for 2010 Found at Mill Site
That's guys for all the info and comments . A Maravedis, Philip III or IV ? ..cool ...Thanks . The King Philip Maravedis IV coin pre dates my area by at least 100 years ..

Must of been lost by European settler later than 1720. I just came back from there after 3 hour search , broke my trusty G.I. WWII shovel that was with me for a long time

& what I thought was a large cent turned out to be another foreign coin

I am not sure , why I have a International bunch of stuff popping out of this place but this is getting to be more fun than I expected .

Thanks , dawg Hispan , Segovia is beautiful city !

Nice, congrats
That bottle was in use here in the USA until about 1900. I have dug several of them out of later dumps.
Nice finds 'Dawg! First time I've seen that Spanish Coin. Maybe HISPAN can tell us something.
Thanks, Steve , PA the bottle is cool , the 1621 is a little bit more interesting for me

Good stuff Dawg. Bet that was a shocker when you saw the date on that one. Too bad the seated has a hole, looks to be in great shape. Hope you can hit that place a few more time before the ground freeze's.
Thanks mainer , my friend ..you have made me feel very welcome on T-Net for 2010 .

Best for 2011 8) I was shocked and it took awhile to figure out where the date was

that is old ,old ,old . How it survived even 350 + years here I'll never know

usually good for awhile longer , but you can never tell with late Dec.

It is very rare to find a coin of King Philip Maravedis Eight IIII in USA (Best said .... it would be very rare to find anywhere in America) only copper coins circulated in Europe that were prohividas in America.
If you look at the back next to the Castle you see a Roman bridge put aside, this is the mark of the mint of Segovia ... who is this beautiful city.
Here I show the Roman bridge is the best and longest in the world.
