I noticed the road was being dug up outside my great grandmother’s house so my Dad and I figured we give it a shot. In the past, we found countless 18th century coins and relics but this is our first Spanish silver from here. It looks to be a 1792 Carlos IV 2 Reales from Bolivia. It was probably brought up from the excavator because it was only a couple of inches down in a pile of loose dirt. Love the detail on this one! Only our second Spanish silver in 10 years of detecting!
