1 Silver thats all..Video!!

zaxfire69 · Oct 9, 2009

Well 1 Silver this morning turned out to be a sweet find. Decided to move from my favorite spot where I have been finding some Barber Dimes, WW1, Civil war stuff. Started detecting and got a strong quarter signal. It was real shallow. Like 4 inches on my F75 so I figured it was a clad quarter. I decided to dig the plug and boy am I glad I did. I dug the plug and saw silver. I put my machine down and ran back to my car to grab my camera. It is so hot in Mississippi today I didn't want to sweat on it so I left it in the car. I ran back and took the video. Boy what a surprise. Like I said in the video I am super stoked. 1876 Seated Liberty quarter. It is worn but the date stands out. I am happy. Hope ya'll like the video. :thumbsup:

Hey zaxfire69, that's an awesome coin! :thumbsup:

Do you remember what ID the F75 gave it? Was it in the 85-87 range? Or more clad-ish, 83-84?

Greenwood is a good ways away from Natchez. Maybe we can plan a hunt soon. That sounds fun.

Actually Jim it bounced from 77-81-87...Bounced around...But i figured it to be a clad, because of how shallow it was. I about flipped out when I saw silver. I ran like crazy to get the cam. Then when it come out and it was a seated....man talk about proud feeling. Good stuff right here.

That Seated is wonderful!

It's really a neat feeling when you see that reeded edge peeking through the dirt

Great hunt!

Hey Zax, super find! I know exactly how you felt when you found it--sweet isn't it?! Great job! Is that your first seated quarter? Let me tell you what's going to happen next....you're going to want to find something bigger and older!

Congrats again!

Its my second seated quarter. My first one I found in my backyard. Dated 1854. In my backyard no less. I dug a V nickel out there as well.
