First Silver Washington quarter/1 wheat/ and a sad 41' nickle

[BandB1]

Hello, SE Michigan here.

Found my first silver washington quarter at the park today. The picture shows it basically as it came out of the ground ( didnt even rinse it with water.) I've only found 4 silvers so far, but am beginning to notice that they are affected by the soildifferently than clad, and are obviously silver. (Although my first silver rosie60', I didnt realize I had till I got home. Would like to thank JimC. for suggesting that I clean silver, using moist baking soda and rubbing with fingers, I did this on my 46' and 64' that I found yesterday and was very pleased with the results, the pictures that I posted don't do em justice.
Also found a 41' nickle that is in horrible shape, can barely make out date and can't make out the mint mark.

Nice quarter. I've yet to find one. They were probably easy pickens in the 70's/80's silver boom. Hard to find. AMC

Nice quarter! I have yet to pull any myself. But just getting back into it. Although last night at the school yard I pulled a 1943 Nickel. It hasabout 35% silver in it and came out very clean from about 3" down. Congrats again on your find and continued luck!
