Old coin?

[ronaldj2]

I found one very similar to that one , about one year ago. I was detecting an old yard house was built in the 1770's. I thought I had a bucket lister until I cleaned it up. Turned out to be a reproduction . I will send a pic if I can find it in my collection of things. I hope yours is the realle deal.

I would post a pic of some real 1715 Spanish Coins if I Can get a photo of the pics that I already have for none are handy to take from Original Reales given when split the treasure found in one season when divided among investors! I will see if Tami can help me, as I haven't the skills to work photos & links from other sites! Wish I could because there are many I would like to link up to on this forum but memory & confusion fail me! The photos are nice to remember them by & not having them available where others could steal! Luckily, they weren't available for the auctioneers to put out for bids! I know that most Coin Dealers & Collectors would know the real from the Fake!

It is not unusual to find these after hurricanes & bad storms washing them up on the sandy beaches along Florida's GOLD COAST! Even comparing photos may not reveal if real or not! Mine each have a Certificate of AUTHENTENSITY from ROY VOLKER who had to have a Goverment Archeologist on board--so they truly are real Spanish Reales from off the 1715 Spanish Fleet that wnt down along Florid's beaches --they say the one with the Mother Load has never been discovered believing it having gone under farther North than the ones discovered! Mel Fisher & his family & Investors spent years & tons of money searching for them with more to be discovered --They found the Atochia & very amazing long gold chains, Emeralds, Rings & etc. You can see them at their Fisher Museum by Internet or visiting when in Florida! The sad part he & his wife lost a son & his wife when their ship was capsized during a furious storm at night! I do forget--so if I've made errors in telling their story please forgive me, as it was the early & mid 80's when I was there & belonged to our Coinshooters club! Afterwards & after divorced most of my time was in going metal-detecting & trying to get my home ready to sell & then moving back towards where I grew up on the farm & went to school! Still in SE MO but not close to where i grew up! God Bless! Ma
