Relic Hunting
Found these while searching for a Camp of Instruction in Va. The coin on the right is a 1727 Portuguese, The one on the top left is a 1825 quarter and on the bottom left is a 1805 Spanish Reale. I found the Reale about 7in. down and it gave a really loud signal, I stood up to cover the hole and decided to sweep it again and found the Quarter in the same hole to my suprise.

Eric, I wouldn't go spreadin around where I found them,I did that years ago,to my dismay!!!!!!!!!Some nice silver there!!!!!!!! God Bless HH Chris
 

what have we here :o Hmmm :icon_scratch: if these are recent finds post your Old coins on "Todays Finds" forum . Welcome Eric 8) dawg
 

Found these awhile ago, didn't think it would qualify for todays finds. I've been hunting now for about 7 years and been wanting to post for awhile, just a little learning curve to post lol. I'll get better in doing so ( I hope ). Waiting for the fields to be picked before I can get cranked up. Your right Chris, but there were several camps of instruction in Va. and through out the south and this one has never been found, but I think I'm getting close. More pics to come.

Fantastic old finds.

All the best,

I would be permanently thrilled if I'd found those three coins! I especially like the Portuguese coin! I have a feeling you'll get other wonderful surprises soon, you seem to have the knack! HH Andi
 

Exellent finds,have found half reals,but the other two are on my wish list.:thumbsup:
