1853 Seated Quarter ~

[RONC(OR)]

Hi All
Went on vacation for a 10 days . Had a great time I hooked up with some of Buddy's from the North West Treasure Hunting Club. The trip was all about water hunting But I didn't find any gold . Went to some sweet spots including Canada.On Saturday we went to Celan & Soap lake. We got 1 gold at Celan then we headed to Soap Lake and hunting a couple of hours till dark. Too my surprise I found 2 mercs with my excal/Wot. The water feels like soapie water and smell of sulfur when you dig with your scoop the sand stays mixed with the water and can give you a rash real fast not fun. So on my way back Home I hit it again this time only going to my knees and this time I was using my SE with the pro coil. Heres what I found in a 2 hours hunt. 1853 Seated Quarter/1944 walking Lib/2 Washington silver Quarters 2 Merc Dimes and 2 War Nickles All the coins were in ca coons So it was kind of fun cracking them open I am going back in a week or so The only bummer about the whole trip was learning one of my friends had passed away She was a great Treasure hunter and a writer for E&W Treasure Lucy you will be missed HH RonC

Sorry about your friend, I have also lost a close friend this year.

Great finds. I hate it when I find coins here in Utah that have been eaten by the alkali soil around here.

Thanks for sharing.
