Hey, folks, I got out today with Colonial Silver Zeus and Colonial KirkPA to our suuuuuuuuuuper productive site. 
In two trips, we excavated 8 coins and tons of relics. Thanks to Keith for filling in for CSZ today at work; if it weren't for him filling in, we wouldn't have been able to hunt today.
Well, after talking to the suuuper cordial farmer, he told us that we shouldn't hunt in the soybean field right now, considering it is growing at a great rate. So, we decided to hit the cornfield across the street from the dwelling. From my research, I knew this other field was related to the dwelling.
As usual, I sweeping along in John Walter-like style, when I was startled with a perfect "M" on "Dime" reading on my White's XL Pro 6000. I instantly pinpointed, dug some doyt (dirt) out, and was greeted with a shiny, silvery-like object.
I picked the buggard up, and saw a mint state 1791 Spanish One Real glancing back at my jib! 
I stood up, and yelled out, "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOO, 1791 ONE REAL...SILVER...SUUUUUUUUPER GOOD SHAPE...MINT STATE, DUDES!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Folks, this is the best shape Spanish silver I've seen posted in awhile, and it was found in a plowed field to boot! 
Well, after talking to the farmer's suuuuuuuper cordial brother, who is also a farmer, we decided to take a break. During this break, we had some great laughs with the gracious farmer, who loved the recoveries that we were making on his property. The two farmer brothers are the BEST landowners we've ever encountered during our short career.
After the short break, I was sweeping along in the same area where the silver was found, and I was greeted with an "E" on "Dime" reading on my machine. It turned out to be a King George II coppa at a depth of 6 inches. 
I later found the beautiful button and spigot-like object in the same area.
I can't wait for this coming Sunday!
Thanks for looking, guys!
