Went out today putting the newly acquired AT Pro to the test. I think I'm going to really love this machine!

The 1936 quarter was part of a pocket spill that had two wheat pennies in the same hole. One is a 1956. The other is unreadable.

A 1936-D is worth more than most of the regular Washington quarters. Check the mint mark to be sure. Nice finds!

I'm guessing it is the 1936-D. It's a little hard to tell.

Nope...it's the 'S' mint mark.
 
Congrats, the atpro is an amazing machine
 
congrats on the 1st quarter, nothing but 65's for me so far.
 
Nice finds!!! Just curious what the black "off buttons" to the right of the paper towel are?

Lol oh now I see it...I couldn't figure out what it could be..maybe bad lighting when I first looked..lol thanks HH
 
Congrats! My first silver quarter was a 1936-D.
 
Congrats on the fine digs !
 
Good hunt for sure. Any old silver coin is good, but I never get tired of the quarters.
 
Love my AT Pro, sure you will too... Happy hunting..
 
How deep was the quarter? It's funny found my share of silver but haven't found a single silver quarter as of yet! HH

It was about 4 inches down. I couldn't believe it when I seen it....I knew it was a quarter...I knew it was silver...all I seen was the reverse side staring at me poking out of the dirt clump. I just stared for about two minutes...LOL
Then I grabbed that sucker and when I turned it over and seen what date it was, I was even more ecstatic! I've only found two other silver coins..and they were both Rosies.

I hope many silver quarters will find their way in your scoop!
 
36 (S) is still worth $15 in G4 in my price guide. :thumbsup: That quarter is worth more than scrap value for sure !! :occasion14:Great find !! :headbang:

Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:
