First Silver For The Year

[catherine1]

Went out last night for about a hour before dark to the church across the street. I have checked this place quite a few times, and decided to turn the sensitivity up to almost max........about 6 inches down. Guess I need to start using this setting and check my other spots again.

Wow that's one heck of a piece of silver. Spanish reales are very cool! I would search that area really hard and see if you can pull out another real, copper, or even some other colonial relics. That is an awesome find.

Thanks for the replies. Its been way to hot to do anything this summer. I also found a large cent at a old one room school this spring.........but it was toasted.

Congrats on the Spanish silver. Quality over quantity, nicely played silver strategy.

Thanks again for the replies. I live in a house built in 1812. And this is the oldest coin so far for my neighborhood. I don't post much because I find very few good finds. This coin was found about a 100 feet from house. I use a Whites 5900 di pro sl that I bought back in the 80's. I believe this is a one reale about the size of a nickel. It rang up between a nickel and a dime. Then between a dime and a quarter after I pulled the plug. HH.
