I went to Oronoco,Minn. today to a park on the hill. It was all weeds and brush when i was a child and now they mow it and a lot of trees.
I think i was there only five minutes when i found it. Cofee in one hand the detector in the other.
As soon as i found it at five inches down next to a tree i thought i should leave because it usually happens i find something good and nothing the rest of the day. I was right,nothing else.
I stayed four hours.The sun was shining and it started to rain. I ran a quarter mile to the out house. It didn't last long and i was back out. About a half hour later it started to thunder and lightning so i left because i didn't want to be tosted.
It's a 1861 seated liberty quarter with a hole in it.
It has S.C.F. stamped on the left side and 1868 stamped on the right.
I thought i might go to the cemetary some day to see if i could match a name with S.C.F. on one of the tombstones.
But first maybe you great bunch of detectorist could tell me what i might have here.
Im just thrilled to have found this. Happy hunting to you all. Roger
