Got out for a shoreline hunt and walked away with some goodies. There seems to be remnants of an old wharf that was just begging to be detected. Within the first few minutes, I pulled a copper that I didnt recognize. After a bit of cleaning, turns out to be an 1816 EIN KREUZER
Shortly after that, I got a mid tone and saw a half moon shape in the hole. Spanish! It looked like a cut 2 reale. Further on down the line I was working, I had another solid mid-high tone.. another piece of a 2 reale. It wasn't until after the hunt that my buddy noticed that they fit perfectly together.
Hit a nice little high tone on the beach across from the wharf and pulled a gorgeous 1853 seated half dime
Also dug a handful of musketballs and found a huge copper on the surface. Not sure what it is yet. I got out again this morning with a buddy and hit an old field. Managed a few keepers. KGIII, roached copper and a sweet tombac crotal bell. Thanks for looking folks!
