Dockwalliper Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 A detector find in Nova Scotia. Unfortunatly...not mine. I don't know anything about old world stuff but I would guess 1500's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roaddevil Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 well from the cross on the reverse it looks like an old europein coin and from the numbers on the observe looks like it was made in 1712 (maybe not that sure) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willieboyd2 Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Looks like a Spanish 1712 silver "cob" 8 reales from Philip V. Spanish coins were used extensively in the British New World colonies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
