1877-S Seated Quarter in FABULOUS condition dug last Sunday

[IDXMonster]

I don't post many finds but the condition of this coin right out of the ground was STUNNING! If it had an NCGS tag with it I would not have been surprised,by FAR the nicest coin of thousands I've dug. This specific park has some soil that totally TOASTS old coppers,the two LCs from there I have are pretty rough,but readable. A 3 cent nickel also popped out of there but was in really good shape,so...go figure. That's what I love about silver coins,they are for the most part unaffected by environmental conditions. Anyway,thanks for looking and good luck out there!

Thank you so much everyone for the kind words,it's amazing to actually find something that's worth posting a picture of! With all the other things people find its pretty stiff "competition",though I don't look at it that way at all. Sharing pics of things gives energy to the next guy to go out and find whatever they're looking for,hopefully that's what this did.

I'm from Minnesota, still looking for a seated. Was that found in Wisconsin?
