Woooo hoooo !! I got one !! A big old fat, chunky, full size, dated piece of eight cob !! Took 5 hunts after the hurricane to get a cob. Only been out of the sand for an hour. Beautiful low tide hunt at the hurricane hole, wasn't there 45 minutes before I got the cob. Found another strap keeper from the wreck too. What a great morning. photo-676.JPG

Im almost certain this coin will clean up incredibly well as it is a full size piece with a bold strike. Pretty sure its dated 1732, and was pulled from high ground by the hurricane. I found it in ankle deep water at mid tide. Woo hooo !! Got to clean the old girl up. Friday the 13 th was pretty darn lucky for me so far. Nice odd shaped piece. Looks like it came from the middle of the bar !!

Hey! That's stolen property!! ...Someone stole it right out of my dreams. :tongue3:
 

I love the spanish !! Seems like wherever they went they left a crumb trail of silver and gold money. It's even better when you know it was king Phillips and he never got it !!, and now I got his silver !!! That makes it really special to me. Imagine......a pirate like me with the kings treasure !!! 284 years later !!! Hell ya !! Now I want one of these !!Screenshot_2017-10-24-17-06-29.png LOL !! Got to aim high and have goals right !! Some kind of studded gold bishops cross isn't to much to ask is it ?? Guess you just go look where you might have a chance of finding one ??
 

Fantastic find!

All the best,

Lanny
