Spanish silver.

[65vanman]

This morning I went to a park where a friend told me that he had found a couple King George coppers. I found a 1781 half reale,two memorial cents,one clad quarter. Then I went back to the farm fields and I found three buckles, crotal bell,horse shoe pin,musket ball,broken arrow head, aluminum measuring spoon, not sure what other piece is.

The bell looks like it attached with a steel rivet instead of a normal cast loop? It probably is a sleigh bell, they attached to leather. Not important, just an observation.

Spanish silver doesn't pop out of the ground very often. You did great. Congrats!
