Congrats man !! :grin:
Those are very sweet finds BC! :peace: The Reale is in excellent condition. :drool:
Great finds. What type of place you hunting? (cellar hole? park?)
Congrats on that Spanish silver. The copper is a Draped Bust. I can give you a 100% ID on it. I have dug two of them this year.

:) Yes indeed it's a sweet coin.I'm surprised it's in such nice shape. Doesn't fertilizer affect silver? Or is it just copper coins? Anyone? If you believe and I mean BELIEVE a site is never hunted out, the Metal Dectector GOD will reward you kindly. thumbsup01 Congrats for hitting the lottery twice. Maybe it was Jack who dropped it a long time ago. You did say Bean field, Correct? :grin: :grin:
Yes, they were found in a bean field.
Fantastic finds! That reale is in beautiful condition!!! :drool:
Which state are you at?
Kirk
Great looking coins!!!!!!!! CONGRATS <:
Very very nice Brian. Amazing! :clapping:
Great Stuff!! :shocked04:. Big Congrats thumbsup01. High grade Reale for sure.
The silvers we have found have not been effected too bad by the fertilizer..mostly the coppers get eaten as with my 1/2 cent... I'm in Ohio.
Holy cow Beef! That's just an awesome find. The next video I want to see is you doing a disco dance in that there bean field. There is no excuse, you had a film crew with you and everything. lol Nice finds man.
Jack
Hey Kirk, It has to be a Liberty Capped Half Cent since you can see the 179? date. Draped Bust started in 1800 for the half cents series. Plus the bust is way up high on the Liberty Capped ones. Can't really see the cap, but it has to be there somewheres :confused:
Here is my footage of the hunt. I combined the last couple hunts in the cornfield and beanfield with Tim.

George, I am very confident that it is not a Liberty Cap. 100% Draped Bust half cent. thumbsup01
Kirk
This has sure been your YEAR Brian!! Couldn't happen to a nice guy!! Congratz buddy! :cheering: :clapping: :happydance01:
It does look like there is no cap on it, but I thought Brian said he could see 179? on it. It may just be a trick of corosion and be a Draped Bust. It does appear to have a fat bust lol. I think you are right Kirk. The date must be corroded and be 180?
How you guys doing in your fields this year Kirk??
After I made my video, I can see that it is a draped. Either way it's an early one! I wish I could do it all over again... tooo much rubbing on it in the beginning! It had better detail in the field than it did by just puting water on it at home. I'm with you... It's a Draped!!! I'm still happy!
Any half cent gets one of these <: It seems like we should find more of them, more than large cents, but we don't :confused: It's hard to not rub anything when we dig it up :crying02:
