While hunting the grounds of an old 1800's high school my girlfriend dug this 1843 Seated Quarter. It was down 8-9 inches and apparently didn't see much use before being lost. DSCN2359.JPG DSCN2355.JPG

That is a beautiful old quarter. It's tough to get one any juicier than that.

Thank you...….I've been detecting 36 years and haven't yet dug a seated coin. Sue has been detecting with me since 2011 and has already found TWO !
