Spanish silver; 50th silver this year

[randy]

After a week of not much hunting except in the tot lots due to the heat and rock hard ground, finally was able to get across the finish line with my 50th silver of the year. I'm catching up Angel oke:

Looks like a 1755 Fernando VI Spanish reale in decent shape :happydance01:. This would be my oldest coin and oldest silver assuming it is not a replica. Too bad about the hole :bangahead01: I guess my probe is too sharp lol

Hole or no hole, a great find indeed! Can you share what area you found it in, a yard, a park, the woods:huh: And how far down it was?

 

[Beefcake]

Now that is a sweet find!!! I'd love to be able to get into something that old.... Very cool!!!

Oh yeah..thats the perfect coin for the silver (golden!) anniversary of 50!

Awesome milled pillar silver, Randy! I bet that one was lost around 1760. <: :happydance01: Did you find it in the woods? Congrats on getting your 50th silver. :twirlingeyes:

Can you share what area you found it in, a yard, a park, the woods:huh: And how far down it was?

It was a park, but a not so obvious section. About 4 inches down, and another 3 for the grass, or 7 inches or so from the coil.
