This is the 11th Spanish Silver pulled from this house site. It was Shanegalang and the Tesoro Cortes' turn this time. An 1814 Ferdinand VII. Buckle boy had no sooner mentioned that he was surprised that we hadnt found any gun flints at this location and wouldn't you know it he walked down a row and found just that........an English gun flint! I also pulled a flat button with the back mark that reads "S Double Plaque Paris". The usual pipe stems, a small cuff button and a smashed thimble were also dug. The coin is very interesting, it had been soldered or braised on perhaps a cuff link. It's my understanding that this was not usually done with a genuine silver coin but this one was. Certainly rare. Hope you enjoy, Shanegalang
