Thanks ! The age is awesome for the area!
Thanks!
Kinda strange because my hunting friend 51 found the 1682 2 reales, the only year they put that reverse crowned CARLOS monogram design other than the pretender. Thanks!
Thanks! Kool looking coin!
Thanks Terry Was thinking of having it slabbed and have then remove the dirt. From what info that I gather about the archduke (Issued during the Wars of Spanish Succession, when Archduke Charles, the future Emperor (1711-40) claimed the Spanish throne as Charles III. In 1706, the Austrians invaded Northern Italy and entered Milan, ending he Spanish rule there. This edict of 31 August, 1708 is an attempt to regulate the currency, eliminate the flight of Milanese gold and silver coins through black market foreign exchange, and set the rate of the new Milanese money against seventeen other foreign currencies ) they were made for black market foreign trade. THANKS Everyone!!

Went over to my hunting friends house this afternoon tried to go out for a hunt but got rained on and didnt find much. the only thing that I found was a 1700s key hole but left it in his truck. Anyways, asked him to get his CARLOS monogram 2 reales coin, we didn't know about the pretender coin in the past and it was kinda real neat to see that he had found the 1714 pretender about 15 years ago and I still remember him digging it up. What's the odds of both of us finding a pretender!!!! ....HH.... 401K
