I commented to a couple fellow detectorists recently when I visited their fair Prince Edward Island that I would like to find a one or two reale so that I could have a bezel made and wear it around my neck...sort of a metal detecting talisman. Less than a couple weeks after coming back from the Island I found a 1 reale and did just that! http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,99296.0.html

I commissioned another fellow detetorist to create the bezel. My only instructions were that I would like the pillars to be the front but that I would also like to be able to read the date. He made just what I wanted! It arrived in the mail today. I also commissioned a bulky 925 chain to keep the pendant where it belongs...around my neck!
