Spanish Real !

[treblehunter]

I have not been out in a couple days, today was looking the same, finally around three I decided to try a spot that I heard used to be a speakeasy years ago. The site is now a corn field, that was what I was waiting for, they cut the corn so I could go stumble around in it. I was not there long when I found a War nickel which was what I was kind of thinking I would find. about a half hour later I had a coin sound with a lower number that made me figure I was going to dig a IHC to my surprise I found a well worn half Real. Had to leave shortly after that.
Enjoy the pix

Nice going on the silver, something that's still on the want list is a Real.

I'll second don on 1783. You can just make out the bottom tip of the 3 sticking out. Congrats on the Spanish silver!

Nice find. Ive hit quite a few pre civil war sites and made some great finds but the ubiquitous late 1700s 1/2 real eludes me

Sweet silver finds!! Always great and and always unexpected when Spanish silver shows itself.
Congrats!!

Congratualtions on the Real!

 

[Scrappy]

Nice Brad! The only thing better than Spanish silver is Spanish....ah, nevermind. Congrats brother!

Congrats on the sweet real Brad. I can totally understand not hunting much after that find. Good finds motivate me to hunt more, but great finds like a real will sometimes shut a hunt down so I can savor the high.
