Best hunt this year

[Erving]

Went to a cornfield today that has given up a few coppers in the past. It's a fairly small field, as far as fields go, but it's an old field and if you put your time in there's a chance of making some good finds. Spent about four hours there and got a button, LC, a nice 2 Reales, and a coin I need your help to ID. It's the size of a nickle, and real thin. It has a bust facing right with some lettering. The back is worn smooth. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Congrats on the 2R, sweet bit of Colonial silver. However, I'm partial to the French Liard, and as IP mentioned, finding a 1600's coin does mean you're on the right track. Where there's one, there are probably more. Hope you find them!

Nice finds Erving- congrats! What part of the state are you from? I'm down the Cape but still hunt in my old SE Mass stomping grounds as often as possible! Continued success...
