Got out for a hunt this morning and came away, to my surprise, 3 centuries of silver. I've found half reales before, but it was a surprise in this particular location. The 1858 Seated Half Dime was a first for me. The Barber, Indians and war nickels were a bonus.

WOW! Now that's an incredible hunt! What's the date on the Half Real? Looks like it might be 1785. It still has great detail! Any chance we can see the other side of it?

The 1858 Half Dime is an awesome find as well! :happydance01:

Congrats on the spectacular day! :notworthy:

That Spanish looks like it is in great shape! Always nice to see a half dime show up too. Those finds could make up 3 great hunts not 1 :lol:

Outstanding hunt Don. I hate those damn war nickles, they always seem to bubble up like that.

Lol. For a sec I thought because you found the Reale it became your avatar. But now I see the dates are different and you said you found some before. Congrats on the finds.

Good catch Mango. The avatar is a 2 reale I found last year when they tore up a local parking lot.

:shocked03: I'm with George and Hook!
That would do for three memorable hunts, but finding it all in one....would cause me a "cardiac event."
