Started out this morning at 7:00 am the weather was nice and cool, went back to my nickel field just to see if I could pull a few more out also I got this hit witch sounded like mineralized rock we run into this a lot in the park but it only hits from one side I did just a half turn as I was swinging also it was repeated I dug a good size plug using my probe I got a high pitched signal at the very bottom of the hole using my hand digger plunged down another 4 inches and a I seen a quick flash 1946-d Washington quarter, I'm surprised it wasn't a barber most of the silver I found in this area were barbers also got an1899 IH and two buffs and a wheat....

Great find of a quarter at 10 inches, it certainly was deep for a Washington.

10 Inches! Have to be persistent sometimes. Sounds like the soil has been moved around there. I've found more than my share of coins at 10", but I don't think one of them was ever a Washington quarter. Nice going.
