Despite a fresh layer of snow, about 1", I got out for a few hours yesterday. I was hunting a field in the general vicinity of Colonial era homes. One of my first signals was a beautiful 12-47 on the E trac. Out popped my third seated, but my first quarter, and it is beautiful, close to a VF30. (I have previously dug a dime and half dime). It is amazing how silver remains pristine in the ground, unlike the toasted Indian I dug an hour later. I can barely make out 186_, but nothing else. I also dug this interesting key. If anyone has any thoughts on what it may have gone to, I would be interested in hearing your opinion. Lastly, I dug a bent aluminum relic. I believe it to be a key fob to a private locker at a turn of the century local cigar store. I still have to do some research. Thanks for looking, and come on Spring!

Congrats on your first seated. Can't wait to find mine.

I envy you hunting through the snow. I was actually thinking about it this morning but it's just too deep. I still have anywhere from 4-8 inches pretty much everywhere after that blizzard. I'm really feeling the treasure withdrawal today but I'm glad somebody got out there.

So congrats on another great hunt....

Very nice seated quarter. Congrats on finding your first. May it be the first of many more. It's always nice knocking one off the bucket list.
