First SLQ

[Georgivs]

Nothing like silver in the hole!


This is when I got exited

Everything I dug today.
3 wheaties (1 has solder? on it) a lil clad, (sterling?) bicycle charm, some lead, and the hammer to a cap gun with only 2 pull tabs! (this time)

I don't see any mint mark on the obverse.
If there are no stars underneath the reverse side eagle, the coin is from 1916 or 1917.
Good catch in any event.

Congrats on your first SLQ! I'm a collector of that series and always look forward to seeing them posted- can't make out a date or MM under the dirt, but awesome find regardless!

Sweet! Congrats!

Surely one of America's most beautiful coins. Congrats on a great save. Would love to see a better picture though, as it is such a nice coin.

Congrats on finding that SLQ. Also I am impressed by your discipline that you did not clear the dirt away from a fresh find and risk scratching it.

Thanks for the attention guys! I don't see a mint mark but she is pretty darn smooth!

Some awesome finds and a huge congrats on digging your first Standing Liberty! They are hard coins to find, I have only found one, which was at a house where I was getting ready to leave and the owner suddenly decided they wanted to keep everything

Got my third on Friday and the only one with any hint of a date, either ‘17 or ‘27 but they are a hard find for sure, almost as hard a the only 20th century silver I haven’t dug, the elusive franklin half ): some day Ben, some day

Good find!! Those are hard to come by.
