in spite of the fact that it was 15*!!! After church this morning I headed to the beach and yes, it was 15*!! I bundled up real good and headed out. At first my hands (due to arthritis) were so painful from the cold (yes, had gloves on) and I was in tears and about to give up, I convinced myself to stop being a baby and tough it up and I am glad I did!....when I picked up this coin, the size of a dime, I knew it was something, not sure, but I knew and I immediately forgot all about the cold! it's a 1780 reale, the size of a dime, not sure if it's a one or half but will have it checked out this week...Spent two hours, yes two hours in 15* temperature finding target after target. I finally found gold on this beach, the small heart....the chain has no marking but I think it's plated....I had to leave because I promised Ileen I would go to the movies with her but I am going back tomorrow!!! .thanks for looking!

yes yes! 1780 :clapping: :perfect10: :perfect10: :perfect10: :perfect10:
You are my heroic friend))) hunting on the beach in the cold is severe. :frozen:
But the good coin - brings the heat ...

Do not stop - look for the coins - on the beach,
coin + coin = treasure
Now your hands are not sore? I understand you :huh: . ( (I'm digging in the cold beach )
 
The one reales usually say 1R or R on the back (at least mine do). Not sure about the 1/2 reales, but the dime-sized ones are usually 1/2 reales. In any case, very nice find, congrats :clapping:
 
Very nice find Sandy!!

If it says 1R on the reverse it's a 1 reale... in my experience (limited) they are about the size of a dime and 1/2 reales are smaller. Great coin! :perfect10:
 
:perfect10: :clapping:, You're tougher then I am! Congrats on the find! Was the wind blowing off the water :frozen: :wow:thinkingabout: In any case. You're a dedicated MD'er |:cheering:
 
Funny how a great find can change your whole outlook on your day isn't it?! :yes: thumbsup01 lol
I know if I had found that bad boy I sure woulda been warming up pretty fast from all the dancin' I was doin'! <: :happydance01: happydance02 lol
Great find Sandy! thumbsup01 |:confused:)
Congrats! :grin:
 
Sandy, what a gutsie gal you are. 15* and you hung in there. Very nice find with that 1780 (what I think is 1/2 reale). At 15* I am not so sure that I would have hung around.
 
Great find Sandy! :clapping: You are braver than I am to be out in that frosty air though. :frozen: But I'm sure that coin warmed you right up. thumbsup01
 
What an incredible find! 1780, WOW! :perfect10:

I agree that it is a half reale.

Good job on braving the cold to recover that beauty! :clapping:
 
:omg: What an awesome find :smitten: . It must have felt great being rewarded for your valiant effort. :clapping:
 
Ah man... very sweet find sandals. <:
I'd love to pull one like that out someday. :smitten:
Congrats.
