Yes i'm getting up there.
Went to another area at Quarry Hill park.
The half was 8 inches deep and the tone sounded good but not like it would if their wasn't junk below it in the ground. DSCF2261.JPG DSCF2262.JPG DSCF2259.JPG DSCF2263.JPG and a 40% 1965 Washington Quarter DSCF2267.JPG and a Canadian Quarter 1975 DSCF2269.JPG DSCF2270.JPG :coffee2:

I would say a coin at 8" attests to good hearing at your age, but then I saw it was a half dollar! Lol.

Great finds and happy birthday

Happy Birthday and congrats on your Walker. Just wanted to let you know, that your 1965 Washington is not 40 % silver. That was only for the Kennedy Half Dollars. Your quarter is clad.

Agree. Not one speck of silver in that quarter. Why it is shiny is beyond me. Must have been a recent drop. Sweet walker. I got one too today

The 1965 Quarter came out of the ground looking nice like that an was 3 or so inches deep and i thought they made 40 % quarters also and i now see they didn't.
That is the first clad quarter that looked so good. Most are dark.

I agree with MS60, all feathers, neckline, both hooters , can't see any flaws----wish the luster could be captured---probably sparkles. WOW
