SLQ- Squished Liberty Quarter! Took my 4 year old out for some "treasure hunting" and scored a few silvers. First a '43 Merc which she pinpointed and pulled. Next was a sideways Merc that was scratchy, a '36. Next came a slammin' signal but choppy. 12-44, 12-46, 12-45, 06-49. Strange. Out popped what I thought was an old cob. Turns out it was a '18 SLQ that looks like it had a run in with a steamroller.

Pics of my daughter was her holding the two Mercs. Cheers and happy hunting!

I didn't know SLQ's could get ugly, but this is one that would look better in the dark;)

Very nice finds! Great to get the next generation involved. As this is my very first post here, I'm not sure if it's cool I share my finds today or if that considering threadjacking your post. Took my new AT Pro out for the first time. I live in the Northeast and a nice day has finally coincided with a day off. Went to the beach and 10 feet of each other, I found three iterations of dimes. 1995, a 44 Merc and an 1899 Barber that other some patina, is in fairly decent shape. I just love the juxtaposition of hits in a row.

Anywho, just wanted to get my feet wet and learn the functions of the AT Pro, hear the tones and such. Turned out to be fairly productive! Happy hunting, all! I can't believe I hadn't found this site sooner!

I don't mind you throwing your finds up. But one-upping me with a barber ain't cool! Lol.

Welcome and nice digs
