well I spent a wonderful time in PA this weekend and on Firday was able to hit up a few banks coin hunting before we did some pheasant hunting.

Most of the small banks and credit unions I checked didnt have much, one had $80, nothing,
the next had $40, Nothing.
The next had $60 One roll had a 40%er
the next roll had a %40er
the last roll had a 64, 3 bens, and a 40

So the weekends totals were.

3 40s
3 bens
1 ken64
9 Pheasants!!!
Also got an error quarter in change, its weird its like the metal is wrinkled, its a Wy quarter and on washingtons jaw and on the smooth part in front of his face there is an orange peal like look in a patch on the face,
And on the back is the same thing on the horse, some sort of orange peal surface anomaly that surrounds the horse, it does not fade, there is a distinct splotch where it is orange peal like and the rest is mint state smooth.
Any Idea?
I took a basic pic, I will try to get a better pic later with a better camera. I just need to know if its nothing or something?

Nice finds. Pays to get out of your own neck of the woods every now and again.

Quarter could be a lamination error.
