from a different spot on the river from where all the other cobs have come from( but still nearby:hello2:). A decent looking Phillip V half real from Mexico City. I also dug a nickel signal that turned out to be a badly eaten up trime at only .2 grams. :BangHead: Its amazing how the water can destroy some silver but others not so much. Spent indian and an ox knob rounded out the better finds

Very nice! You are getting a great collection of those. :occasion14:
 
Wow that cob would make my life! Congrats on the nice finds. Those are some amazingly small silvers! Sounds like an amazing spot!

Thanks. IMO, it doesn’t get much better than a cob. Each one is unique and are among the first coins dropped in our country. Just wish I could find one larger than 1/2 or 1 real size or maybe an English hammered if Im really lucky
