I got back to one of my favorite detecting sites. Signals have become few and far between. The only things I dug were a flat button and this beauty of a coin! I finally caught the right moment on video!

This is another T2 SE find. I've found more Spanish Silver with this than any other detector I've owned!

Yes, the second IIII, found about 40 yards from the first. My favorite half reale is a later type dug in November of 2011... a Ferdinand VII, both because we never see them dug, and it's condition!

The Teknetics T2SE has an affinity for Spanish Silver! Today's silver is my fourth half reale since October when I began using the T2.

And Congrats on making the Best Finds edition, Jim!
 

Incredible. I've had no love from the silver with my T2. My T2 loves the coppers, but I can't seem to swing her over a silver. That thing ring in at 84+?

Actually if you watch the video, you will see it bounce between 78-82. More of a zinc penny signal I guess.
 

Thats funny Neil sice I got my T2 I have found 4 half reals. They do usually bounce from mid 70s to low 80s. Are you using that BP mode yet?! Your gaining honest inches up from 2+ to BP.
