Spanish Mountain, lives up to it's name, 2 X 1 reales + rev war button ?

Yes of course ZDD and me.

What a great day it was, well the field was just rolled in red velvet carpet, which is the condition I do require. It could not have been smother, and even though we had hunted this particular field a few (at least 6) times before, I couldn't believe the amount of targets, non-frerrous targets we were pulling, as a guess 40 to 50 targets between us between is in 6 hours. I didn't even want to stop for lunch as Dave had his Silver then

Yes Dave got the silver first, and no less the 7 in total coppers?




The weather was perfect, the conditions were perfect.
What a great freekin day for the the record books.
Finds:

1 Spanish Silver 1726 1 reale
1 Really nice knee buckle
1 REV. WAR. button, possibly Massachusrtetts 4th ? Please help on this one.
More stuff.

Holy crap those finds are insane!!! I'm sure I speak for all of us on the west coast when I say we are jealous!!!
 

Wow what a productive site! The button is amazing and the Spanish is well.....always awesome . It is old ass silver after all
 

Wonderful!!!!!
 

Its great that you were able to dig so many targets from a site you've hunted so many times before. Love the Spanish silver. :notworthy:
 

Yep, that's a good one.(Rev War/ early pattern) And Spanish too... great day!

Is that a IV Dragoon ?

The silver is a special find I hope to get, although as you know a cob would be nicer..........

OK I hear ya people the finds, I've never found so many shoe buckle parts, I'M think there is like 4 of them, damn I hate to complain, but I do want a whole one, (but not so bad as to be happy with one from a re-enactment site, and only 5 years old.), No offence to you guys, but with all the "copy " coins, and repro buttons, can't you put 2 and 2 together.

Hey Rick I just read the whole post and I see you feel a need to try and hurt other people's feelings?? Instead of just enjoying your great finds..If you followed all the posts from that site we had all kinds of finds..1700s to modern day..You just never know whats going to come out..

You must really have a terrible image of your self??? Or maybe you just Have a really SMALL DETECTOR????

You guys had a great day. Love the off-center strike on the pistareen. That button is cool too.
