My First Spanish Silver

[462]

Found this1817 Mexico City1/2 reale in the woods at a local park today. Unfortunately I scratched it while digging it out of the frozen ground.

That is one beautiful coin! NICE! So what did it read on your detector if you can remember? Just curious.

78-80 between a zinc and copper penny. Also it was about 4" down.
