Winter Solstice Spanish Silver

[Scrappy]

I almost didn’t go today after work because I only had an hour before dark. After holiday traffic and forgetting my earphones at the truck, I had 40 minutes...

I’ve taken lots of friends to this site and have pounded it thoroughly. Through time we’ve found British, State, and large US coppers, as well as US silver dating to the 1830’s. The early back-to-back snowfalls had flattened the dead weeds and conditions here were ideal. I’m a small section I managed a couple buttons and a chape frag, and this Spanish 1 reale.








Happy Winter Solstice everyone!! The sun is currently 23 degrees 20 degrees south of the equator but its heading north. The days will be getting longer from now on...

But the cold continues. Good hunts

Steve

Were there ever any copper Reale's. I have an extremely worn copper coin that appears to have an ever so slight crown on the back kinda like this one.

Well buddy, we try to the bitter end. And it’s bitter bro - lows this weekend and next week - 5 degrees. But I’ll be seeing you in the Spring. I’ll take you guys here
