Hit a huge field today, only the second time at this site.  There are the visible ruins of a very old house, which I hit the first time I was here last fall, but came up empty.

Today I hit the area around another house that shows up on the 1930s era aerial photo, but there is no trace if it now.  Just 10 minutes into the hunt hit an 11-46 on the E-Trac, which is usually a clad quarter, and was quite surprised and elated when this popped out.  My first ever 4 reale, and only keeper of the hunt.

A bit weird to have a hole in one side but not the other. Looking at the hole, it looks like a small image of the king in it.  I don’t know enough about these things to know if that was intentional at the mint, or post circulation, or I’m just seeing things.

I now have the half reale, 1 reale, 2 reale, and 4 reale.  Just need the big one.  Good luck with that.
