Was checking out a new site this morning (again in the rain!!!!)... and under a small bush i got a quarter signal at 2" and at first thought it was just a new quarter until i picked it up and saw the Barber Liberty face... i said out loud "No Way!!!"... and in great condition too... wow, rescanned the hole and got another Quarter signal... a inch or two deeper out comes a 1877 Seated Quarter. kind of worn but still a keeper. probably about a foot and a half away i got a 63 VDI and at 5" i dug a 1881 Indian Cent. most of the clad and Denmark Bronze coin came from yesterdays hunt with DFX Willie
