Mexico 8 Reale!!!

[Corvid]

Last hole of the evening and out pops this beauty!! About 8 inches down at an old house nearby. A first for me!



Sorry about the sideways pics. When attaching pics from my phone it always does this unless I take the pic horizontally. Anyway to turn them?

Downloaded a photo editing app and rotate the pictures. Might work for ya.

Did you find this in Ohio? Wow, great find!! Congrats!!

 

[Corvid]

Yes, found near Cincinnati.

I found a 1829 Spanish Mexican 8 Reales here in Louisiana and I'm still chasing that high. Mine was about 8 inches and solid black. One of the best feeling of my life.

Gorgeous coin. Now I want one. I've never found one of these. Have found so little silver in my digging career when I find some, I'm still clueless what it is until it's out of the ground.

Congrats on the big old silver

Don't matter which way you photo that silver. It's big, and old, and a sweet find in anybody's book. Congrats!

Beautiful old Mexican silver! Congats

I always click on a "found an 8 reales" thread with a bit of hesitancy. Pleasantly surprised by your recovery, though. Great hit!

Absolutely incredible dig! Way to go!

Wow, very nice - especially for this area!

Nice find, any denomination of reale is still on my bucket list
