Just pulled this out of my yard. Haven't cleaned it yet, but it is silver, from 1816, and I think not U.S.?

That's a pretty cool reale. We don't see too many dates from around that time on Tnet. The Mexican War of Independence was raging on at that time, which culminated with the takeover Mexico City in 1821. Very cool
Story, if you're interested, and find.
