I went back to the park where I found the 22 kt gold ring. I was hunting another area. It was a boring hunt most of the morning. I was searching with AT Pro with the ground balance set at -10. I was listening for the deep tones. I found a 1943 P war nickle. Always nice to find a little silver during a hunt. I also found a toasted wheat penny. I found the usual trash, can slaw, bottle caps and aluminum foil. I was searching in a erratic pattern, not really caring which way I went.
I was cutting across a soccer field about 30 feet in front of the goal post. I got a sweet mid tone of 60-65. It was too irresistible not to dig. I dug down about 8" and here's where my heart stopped. As I searched the bottom of the plug I got a peak at the edge of a silver coin. Thinking it was either a merc or a rosie, i picked it up and whipped the dirt off. This what I saw. A King Carlos 1111 1/2 Reale. One more item off my long bucket list.
