Yesterday I went back to the colonial farm where I found the GW button , and once again she didn't let me down. Found a small tombac, and right at the end of day before I had to leave, a nice high tone. 1785 half reale Spanish Silver!

Wow congrats my friend. Had you found any Spanish silver before this?
My first was a half Reale and it was pretty smooth, could barely make out the date.
I've managed just two since then. They truly are a fantastic piece of history....so so exciting to see those in the dirt.....
Well, congrats again.
 
Bobac, Yes, I've found 2 others before this, a 1755 Holed Half Real and a 1786 1 Real
