Before they made it off limits, due to some weird avian plague, and various pollutants, we were detecting at Denver's City Parks Duck Lake.
The type of quarter dug will never be known, and the 1900 Morgan was a crying shame. When I dug it, you could see every detail of the coin, all nice and crisp. And then it just started to flake off, primarily caused by all the duck and geese poop.

No it's great because they are easy to keep! :thumbsup: Back when I started to find early buttons but didn't know what they were, I did hope every one I dug would be a big score but there was also a little part of me that wanted the value to be low so I wouldn't be tempted to sell.

This is a fun thread! :icon_thumleft:

I don't have anything too good to add - a 1947 quarter from the gravel next to my driveway and a 1944 dime from a yard. I hope by the end of this upcoming season I have something much "better" to post here :D
