2 Firsts Today For 2009. Silver Quarter And Ist Of It's Kind

What a day! My first dirt hunt. First silver this year and first silver of that type. I found some south facing slopes that had no snow, and frost free areas, which meant that I could get that relic shovel in 4-5 inches. My 4th signal got a 1949 penny. My 5th signal, showed a silver quarter consistently, in all directions with a coin sized object. It was only down about 1/2 on an inch. I couldn't believe my eyes when I picked it up and recognized it as a US Quarter! What a great hobby! :thumbsup:

Come down to Florida and you will find lots of Canadian coins... we seem to trade them a lot and Canada is getting the better deal!
