50 cents worth of silver?

[Jeff in Pa]

Haven't looked this one up but I know this is a first for me. My son says it's from Spain?

Mid 20's signal

1880 Alfonso XII 50 Centavos. Pretty weird “Spanish silver” but hey...you could’ve done worse.

It's definitely Latin / Spanish silver.. Great find..!!

1800's foreign silver? That's a great find anyway you look at it!

What, that old thing, I got a couple in my pocket change yesterday. Why can't I find something silver. Nice find!

Hey plowboy, sew up the hole in your pocket!!! Lol

Thanks for the nice comments all.
The weird thing about this one. It was within a foot of another hole I dug days prior and a second hole 2 feet away. Those coins I got using park 2 with 5 tones. This one I used park 1 with 5 tones. Such a tiny coin but I can see the silver is not the higher quality that a U.S. coin has.
Not complaining about it just my own thoughts.

That is a great find. I don’t think I have ever found foreign silver.

Nice find for sure. You have many years experience as I remember you reporting many nice finds years ago on the DFX Only forum. I am new to the Nox 800. Very impressed so far. No gold or silver yet. A vast improvement over the DFX. I'm considering installing the 3.0 to use in the User Profile to check iffy high numbers

Nice find Jeff. Congratulations. Seeing the pillars would start me shaking. You have always had great skill at putting your coil over some very awesome foreign silver and gold if I recall correctly. Have a Merry Christmas and a healthy and Happy New Year.

Very nice find. All silver is good. Foreign, or domestic.
My only foreign silver find is a 1855 Canadian 5 cent piece.
