Beach & Shallow Water Hunting
Today went down to the beach again, I have haunted it for the past 2 years. The tide was VERY low due to the full moon. I was able to swing over an area that is usually NOT exsposed, needless to say it was a little bonanza area for me today. I was there about 2 hours, and only found a few items, but they were of quality. Today I found my first 1846 Seated Liberty Quarter and it's counter stamped with the initials of H.B.R., Absolutely awsome. I have found quite a few seated dimes over the years and 2 seated Liberty Halves but never a quarter. I can NOW scratch that off my list even though it's very corroded I love it. Also got 2 Indains,and four more silver dimes, 2 were Barbers, one is a Rosy, and the other is a 1942 Liberty dime. What a great day on the beach for sure.....2012 has been a BANNER year for me so far...Happy Hunting

Wow. A shame it's that corroded.
 

That should still clean up nicely.
I'd kill for something like that to be in my hole.
Really, kill.

Willy, I'm on a roll this year, the silver GODS are out in strength . I didn't realize it till I got home as to what I had. Thought it was a Barber badly corroded, to my suprize a seated counter stamped to boot....Holy sh#$@^%$#t loving the hobby since 1972 and still getting excited about finds..:)

I agree the salt water kicks the crap outa the silver, but just glad to have had a chance to save it from the sea.
