1781 half real

[OxShoeDrew]

After work and a dentist appointment I had 90 min before dark so I went back to my park :cheesysmile:
The half real is in spectacular shape and was DEEP :shocked02:
I've found many, many musket balls at this park over the years...I think they must have mustered there in the Revolution.

That's a beautiful reale Drew, congrats!

 

[Lodge Scent]

That's it Drew. You are forcing me out of the woods! That is in nice shape!

Beauty of a coin. Your finds are bringing Jeff out of the woods....:lol:. Keep up the great detecting.
I just replied to your PM.

That park of yours is amazing! I bet you had a smile just as big as the one King Carolus has! Beautiful!

Great find Drew and what a beaut! Just an amazing park you have there. Nothing close to that up here - they all seem heavily pounded so I essentially gave up hunting them a few years back. I assume you're only digging repeatable mid to high tone deep signals there (i.e. > 5 inches)?

Belated thank you guys! John, I dig EVERY repeatable deeper than 5 inches at this park...even low tones.

That is an amazing find. I can't even imagine what it would be like to find a coin like that, especially from a park! :shocked04:

Finding beauty like that in a park of all places gives me hope for the spring when Don, Alex, and I come out. Just amazing! Did you need to use a big coil? Good signal or iffy?
Weather just buried us here so won't be doing much til spring thaw. Congrats buddy!! :clapping:

 

[Cheap Thrills]

That has got to be one of the finest 1/2 Reales I have ever seen posted . Congratulations !

The amount of 1781 reales ive seen in the last few years is staggering , it must of been a huge mintage number ! What I like about them are they are considered a "Rev-war" era coin and pretty special in my book Drew ! Congrats
