Had a good day...first silver quarter and first musket ball (pulled from a colonial field)

Quarter is kinda stained.

Side note - I love the sound of silver coins clinking together, so on the way home I stashed the quarter and a wheatie in my car's shift boot and listened to that clink every shift

Anyone know why my pics always turn 90 degrees after I upload via iPhone?

Congrats on pulling a couple of firsts. I believe it is because they are taller instead of wider. If you click through to max resolution they are in the correct direction.

Nice first silver quarter. I like the sound silver makes too, there's nothing like it. Just promise you'll resist the urge to clink your first Barbers and Seated together haha!

Congrats on your first silver quarter!!! I just found my first Washington quarter within the last week! That's funny you mention the silver clinking sound. I know the sound you mean. About the pictures uploading sideways, mine would always do that when uploading on a Mac computer. This is until I first downloaded, saved the photo on the computer and then uploaded it.

Everyone is fussing over your first quarter, but I say congrats on the round ball. I hope it gives you as much satisfaction as they do me when I find them.

Great Score, congratulations. May we now refer to you as "Colonel Clink?"
