Hi everyone,
We found these items today. The dark coin looks very old, and we have a good silhouette showing...but letters are very faded. Dug him up from under a tree root on the 1683 property. Would love to hear if this guy looks familiar to anyone. Also found a Spanish real, about 1880ish, bent, with a chopmark.
Also, a few of you on another thread asked for close-ups of a silver coin we found, so I've attached them here in case you miss the original post. Coincidentally(??) this piece is the same size as a 1652 New England Threepence. I see a mark at the top(?), but I can't quite make out what it is. There are superficial, faint V type scratches on each side. Today was a good detecting day. Hope you all had one as well.
Thanks for viewing.
