💥🤪😎🥵🔥 2.5 hours driving and… half Reale 1758 live the experience💥

[Jorgeke]

Hi all

Yesterday we went to an old town (early 1700?).
we started the trip at 4:30 AM; We arrived there around 7:00 AM, we bought coffee, ice, bottles of water, tuna cans, snacks, etc then we went to pick up a delicious home made “Gorditas” ( gorditas are a small gross tortilla filled up with different types of food like pork skin, fries beans with cheese, asado, meat and potato, etc, accompanied with Mexican hot sauce😋)

So delicious breakfast (thanks to our friend Louis “ El Andariego” who ordered a day in advance and paid for them.

I enjoy three of them, I wait for another one latter 😋

We started to metal detecting around 8:00 AM

I do not want to bother with my broken English, so here you have some photos

I think best find a silver half real 1758

Very nice historic finds Jorgeke👌 I'd say your Gorditas, would be the Mexicans version of a Cornish meat pie. A popular packaged meal with the miners from Cornwall-Devon. Many of them left the old country to go hardrock mining throughout the whole world during the 19th century. The influences of these Cornishmen is found all over in the mining regions of the western hemispherical. Maybe a Gorditas has its roots though a Cornishmen who searched for gold and silver in Mexico.

Looks like a great hunt Jorgeke! Nothing broken about your written English at all that I can tell. Congratulations on great recoveries. Look forward to seeing more of your experiences.

 

[Blak bart]

Wow !! Fantastic!! I like this adventure.....beautiful finds too !! Congrats!!

 

[Mackaydon]

Great finds !!
The 1758 1/2R came in two varieties; one with royal crowns and the other with an imperial and a royal crown. The first is from the series 1747-1758 and the second from the series 1757-1760. Why there is a difference, I have no idea. Both coins weigh 1.69g and have a diameter of 16mm.
Keep swinging Jorgeke, you always seem to find a good hunting area.
Don in SoCal.

 

[Almy]

Thank you for another fascinating photo and written trip to Mexico!
Your 1/2 R is similar to Mexican-minted silver coins I have found here in Atlantic Canada. They apparently were regularly used here in good quantity.

Interesting what you have commented, I google and see images of a Cornish meat pie. Could be.
