Well I made the trek back over to the virgin park and with the new little warm spell I've had a little more area thaw so I could detect it. The hill where I popped two seated dimes this last week had some good sun on it so decided to give it a try. I did'nt get to far while following what looked to be an old footpath when I got a strong hit and the explorer was saying quarter and not to deep. cut the plug and in it was my first ever seated liberty quarter! Wow what a feeling! had to call a few friends to tell them before I could continue. I worked the side of the hill back and forth and continued to pop silver and IHP's for over an hour and a half heres the final tally.....1878 seated quarter1941 silver washington quarter,1941, and 1942 mercs,1888,1899,1904,1906,1906 Indianhead penny's. I still am only able to hunt about 10 percent of this huge park so I got high hopes for the next few months:D
