Great Hunt Today & My First Reale 1739

[DigginVt]

Well I had a great hunt today at a farmhouse that dates to the late 1700's. Signals were EVERYWHERE, one of those rare yards full of good tones. I was finding wheats with almost every step, 28 total. 3 Indians 1893, 1905, 1908 a 42' Merc, 52' Rosie and a 1937 Ten Centavos Phillipines, does that make a dime trifecta Found half a spoon, tiny crotal bell and a great Smith & EGGE padlock, these were used from 1870-90s to lock mailboxes.

Well in the midst of the wheat field I got a 12/38/39 with a high chirp at 9", to my shocking surprise and joy at 9" down was my first Reale. It took a second to register because I have not seen or held a 1 Reale before. Well here are the pics, I still have some more to search there. Thanks for looking
