Took the day off result....MY FIRST REALE 1788!!!!!!

[CTX Tom]

Had the day off from work today and grabbed the T2 for a little field work.After popping a musket ball right off the bat I had a nice consistent 81 on the T2.I popped the plug and looked like I found another button until I looked closely.It was my first ever spanish silver! <:[attachimg=1][attachimg=2][attachimg=3]I was in a state of shock,I was not expecting this today for sure!Took a photo of a V nickel also and a very large hunk of lead(for making musket balls in the field?),not sure but it was pretty heavy.Its nice to get a few hunts in before the snow falls.If this weather keeps up I will hunt all thru winter!!

congrats on your first spanish silver Tom :cheering: :clapping: :cheering: :clapping: its a little hard to tell the denomination from the picture. is it about the size of a modern dime ( half reale) or closer to nickle size (1 reale) ...

 

[CTX Tom]

Dime size for sure
