Hard work finally paid off - 1943 quarter on the golf course... it was going to be the last signal I dug, and I really didn't think it was going to be this... bounced between 39-42, which I thought was weird - only about 4"... but it was stuck to the bottom of the plug when I flipped it over... always a sweet sight.

Congrats on the silver! It's happened to me more than once - it's getting late, I'm making my way back towards the car, get a signal and dig "one more for the road" and it turns out to be something sweet.

You do NOT need permission to hunt SOME golf courses. I pulled over 100 barber coins out of one and the gold eagle I found. Lets not judge. In fact I am going back as soon as I get back to Utah.

Nice quarter. It is very possible someone used it as a ball marker.

The city owns the land that the golf course is on in my town. I have always wanted to hunt it but wasn't quit sure how others would feel about that.

Hi folks - been away for a bit, haven't been feeling well and wife has had surgery, so I've been a little preoccupied.

As for permission - absolutely I've gotten permission from them, and they don't care, as long as I'm not interfering with the players, and don't hunt too close to the greens or fairways. I would never hunt anywhere without asking permission first if needed.
