My nephew who is a fisherman told me about a spot where they had a strip of camps that were taken out by Katrina and never rebuilt. They were built in the 70’s but only a half mile from Fort Pike a fort in lower lower New Orleans in near the marsh and the Gulf. So I gave in a shot hope that I maybe just maybe find something real old. Well I got a Susan B Anthony, clad and and then I get a slamming signal!!! 4” deep I dig my plug stick it in the hole and the pin pointer lights up and the first thing a saw was this......
I’m freaking out.
Seconds later in see this....
Now remember I’ve run across my share of Mardi Gras dabloons that fooled me once when I was green, (that was hilarious ) but when I picked this one up I knew I hit BANNER. I thought I just found a 1775 Carlous III Spanish Silver!!!!! The detecting gods have a sense of humor lol
Happy ends was when walking out the march I found my largest marble everything was ok
