spanish silver

[dfx willy]

wow what a day! got up early and went to a section of woods ive done before with good results. it was cold out there and i tected for about a hour with little results exept a nice canadian penny then i decided to leave and shut my tecta off and started walking out. as i was walking out i noticed a area that i was at before wich gave up indians so i said what the hell ill give it another shot.started tecting and i got a screwy signal at about 4 inches and decided to did it because of the depth. out came a old little lockso i thought cool ill stay a little longer. then i got a good sig at about six inchs v.d.i 83 quarter icon and i took about a inch of dirt off and got a 90 v.d.i quarter- half now i got excited so i dug and out came a spanish silver coin ive been praying for one of those. i almost shat myself. i knw its a reale but i dont know what size its worn were it tells ya and were do i look for a mint mark. its a little bigger than a qaurter im guessing its a 2 reale. what a way to pretty much end the season that made my day for sure wild willy
