Hello SE Michigan here. Found a 219 year old silver at my 50's park today. Dinged it a little, but was a good hunt w/ surprisingly nice weather for this time of year.   Good luck, HH. |

great find. To bad about the gouges. Never tried it before, but I think if that were mine, I would figure out a way to re-tone it or lessen the gouges some other way. There has to be a way.

Bandb1, wow what a nice find. I also dug a Spanish II Reales today. I know how you must feel.  Congrats on that amazing find. Any Spanish coin dug in USA is a great find. |

Thanks all for looking. When I found it my heart litterally skipped a beat, have to admit though my joy was somewhat tempered when I saw the dings. But it is certainly sweet to have found a real oldie. Keep swinging never know what might pop up. Good luck, HH. |
