    Old green coppers are big fun to dig weather or not you can ID them. Nice

    Thanks guys.Sorry about the fuzzy photo.I think I'm going to upgrade my camera.Dont seem like I can get a good macro photo from it.I even messed around with the lighting.
    And wow,I didn't think that coin could be that old.That would be my oldest coin if that's what it is.My oldest before that was a half reale around 1738.

    Great find. I was lucky enough to find the same coin you found. Try using a jewelers loop or magnifying glass in front of the camera lens. Best of luck to you on future hunts. Happy Hunting!!
