I needed 26 qtrs to break the 2000 mark. I found 28. The 26th took over an hour to find. Im about as sore as can be.Too stubborn to quit;before I reached the mark. I found asoldier to guard all my loot and a jeep to bring it home in. It was suggested that I take a pic of all the qtrs. Im sorry to say that I only have about 700 of them left. The used the rest to pay off my detector; and 2 coils and shafts;that I bought.Instead I will be posting todays finds ;along with a pic of the 2000th qtr in the ground.Sorry If if I have disappointed anyone.

When I started toward the goal; I never tohought about taking a pic of all of them together.
Last yr I cleaned all my coins during one setting. I had 4500 coins and took almost 10 days to tumble them all.This yr; I cleaned them in 3 settings so far.Hope you enjoy the pics.HH

How many pennies did you have to pass over to get all of those quarters. Thats a great ratio. Congrats on the 2KQ goal.

Did you count silver quarters too? Wondering what your ratio of silver to clad quarters was.
