1790 Half Reale and 1722 Rosa Americana Penny...

[FooserPaul]

Hello All!

Sorry I haven't been very active lately... but life, family, and work been... crazy... but I have been getting out once a week or so...

Today I hit a spot that Dan, George, and I have visitied a few times... This is private property and my 10th visit to the site... Chucl Scott from out detecting group went with me today...

From 9:30 to 2:30... not so much... lots of copper projectiles... Some lead... Some D buckels...

2:30 Then the Rosa Americana popped out... I should have left the hard pack dirt in place... gentle rinse with water... and the rose and the 172 gone... but I knew the coin immediately as I recovered on last year...

2:40... 10/35 and it was bang bang... No one would have missed this target @ 4", but I was luckly enough to get my coil over it... I was thinking Indian head... but knew that the ferrous of 10 was a little high... I was NOT expecting my first Spanish Silver...

1790 Spanish Half Reale... I know they heard me yell a county over

I have another 5-6 hunts worth of recoveries to get pictures up for...

Oh yeah... I've been waiting 3.5 years to get Spanish Silver... Did I menetion Spanish Silver 8D

Hey Paul. Great finds man.

I heard you all the way here in Nebraska. I remember because it was 1:40 pm (we're CST) and I was out walking to check my cows and heard this cheering. I thought to myself, "sounds like another E-Trac'eteer has made a great discovery."

Congratulaitons on your Spanish Silver.
