Congrats! May many more find your coil. Judging by the condition you are on track for more nice early recoveries in that area.
 

Wow, in great shape. Congrats on the bucket lister.
 

Excellent condition with little wear. That's a drop from not far after the mint date. Congrats!
 

Congrats! First of many i hope!
 

Wow, nothing like jumping back 126 years to beat your oldest coin date. Congrats on the Spanish silver. That one is in great shape.
 

sweet, congrats
 

Congratualtions on the beautiful Spanish silver! :occasion14:

Great find! My first Real was from 1775, the same type. Still can remember how excited I was finding it. Had no idea what it was at a time. Big congratulations! And many more!

What a feeling getting that 1st old Spanish silver! Congrats man
 

What were you doing differently to get it, & is that spot cleared of all signals?
