Bale seal "1790" (mint condition) + trading route (18th century)

[DutchDiggers!®]

sup my tec friends,

The best find we ever did is this German "1790" bale seal (mint condition) with all the right markings!
It has the German double eagle and clear Date on it..
It was one of many artifacts we found that day, but this seal was our main prize!



All our finds together showed there was a Dutch / German 18th century trading route present that wasn't on record yet! AWESOME!

Now that is what relic hunting is all about...discovering 'new' history!

DIG ON!
