Possibly the biggest bazinga that stopped my heart ♥️

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

Crazy hobby

I also saw a lot of these and some were round. Could this be a fossil?

Heck I don’t know I don’t think so there’s also some round piece just like it.

There’s 2 parts the white/yellowish outside is like brittle enamel and the inside brown is like a piece of chalk. Some of it can break like chalk.

Bah! 50/50 chance and you pull the exciting side first. Figures right? There ought to be a law about that [emoji16]
Not to worry though. Now that the Universe has had it's fun, it owes you a stellar find.
