As you might recall, I previously showed and discussed this two-reale that was found by Terry S. Terry had the coin cleaned by West Bay Trading Co. of Vero, who also issued a certificate of authenticity for the coin.

Terry believes the coin came from an early and previously unknown Treasure Coast shipwreck and is probably the oldest coin ever found on the Treasure Coast. The COA indicates that the wreck is unknown and the coin is graded as grade 1.
Terry also had an eight-reale cleaned and certified by West Bay Trading Company.

As you can see, the eight-reale is certified as being from the 1715 Fleet and being grade 1.
Thanks for sharing Terry.

7PM Update: A front came thought this morning and there was some small erosion as early as noon today.
Looks like the surf will be building.

I found a few little things yesterday on a local walk. I haven't taken photos of them yet though.
I also have some other better finds that I'll be looking at.
Happy hunting,
