Gold Rush Site Day 2


Recommended Posts

Second day on the small flat but this time with the DEUS..   It pulled a few good targets using Fast with the XY screen.  The Mexican Real and the pistol tool were maybe an inch apart and the DEUS heard them both.  The more I use the Deus the more I like it.  Cool two piece button in 3 pieces was just under the grass.  I am having trouble reading the date on the coin so maybe somebody can see better than me?  5206500E-9D85-49A3-8FA1-FFAE2325E92E.thumb.jpeg.35b1ff08e5ab78da8f96f0192e9face1.jpeg

    Nice work!👍

I'm seeing possibly 1889 on your coin! Side lighting it may reveal more! I'll keep looking!👍👍

Thanks Joe,  I tried but maybe too much sun today and it’s pretty small.

Great stuff again. 👍

The Mexican coin will give up its worth if you can get the mark next to the "R" more visible. It's either 4 or 8 Real, I'm gonna say 1830s. Some of those are quite valuable, yours is a "P.J." or "PJ".

Cool bullet mold and thermometer back too.

Joe, really cool find on the pics.   I’ve been hoping to find a brass bullet mould but this will do for now.

F350. Let me try to get a better pic.   The stamping is not very clear on it.

  Update Chris,

   Its earlier, based on the Libertad "ray's"; 1839 or older! Maybe a 1/2 reale?👍👍

Some size comparison with a US Dime.

I’m pretty sure it’s a 1/2 Real
