Today I hunted a ball field that I've hit 5 times over the last few weeks. I keep thinking that it is possible it has not been hit hard by anyone because I've found silver every time I've been there. Here are my totals to date:

Clad 352
Wheaties 36
Silver dimes 8

Drum roll......REALE!!!! found today


I"ve measured it and believe it to be a 4 reale and it is in pretty nice condition. This is my first spanish silver and I can't believe this coin came from this ballfield!!!!

Found about 3-4" down with my Etrac and rang up at 12-45.

That's one Beautiful Coin !
From the ballfield, Who'd have thought :o
Another vote here, Congrats on the spectacular Find.
 
Jorge I keep thinking the same thing..this had to be something before it was a ball field. I spoke to one person who had lived there 25 years and said it was always a ball field as far as he knew. Thanks everyone for the replys!

And Root....my lips are sealed, at least till I move to Florida in June!!
 
Thanks for the E Trac numbers cntrydncr1. I will definitely remember them. Wow 4 reale.
