Tonight I decided to head back to the school that produced so well for me last week to try out my new XLT.I got a signal for this and dug down about 4-5" and pulled this out.Has some weight to it.This is the last thing I thought I would find tonight.Oh yeah,the XLT produced very well for me.I am really happy with it.Please let me know what type of coin this is.THANKS

It looks like a poorly cast replica Spanish Cob.

Here is an example of a Philip IV (1621-1665) cob.
Yours may not be a bad copy. And then again it might be.
I'd have someone check it out!

Ok thanks for the help...I pretty well assumed whatever it was it was fake but I still like it.Never found one before so it's a first.Also found a gold colored ring with big ice in it....too bad it's fake!!

Here is a pretty good resource to help identify some of the "more modern" cobs and reales.

Whatever it is, it sure looks cool.
