me and riccar met up with california legend Tom T, to hunt a mission period location. previous hunts by other hunters have produced various coins and relics over the years. you never know what to expect to find at these sites. i usually only find mission period trash. a good find could be a foot down or an inch deep. this hunt turned out to be very productive for me. both of the finds pictured were only 1 inch deep each. i dug 19 modern coins and about 20 pieces of trash.
the reale is worn at the date, but carolous IIII can be seen. this dates the coin between 1788-1808.

Sorry, had to say it.

Also, I shrunk the pic... seemed a little big, but may just be my computer's settings...

Actually I was glad for Brian... it was definitely his "turn" and what a turn it was!!!
(of course I wouldn't have minded pulling those
Love that holed 1/2 reale!
It's been four years since I have coaxed any Spanish silver from the dirt.
