Got home from work a bit early and went for another quick dig. I walked the wagon trails again and a perfect 93 caught my ear. Dug the plug, and the first thing I saw was that eagle looking back at me and I knew exactly what I had. I nearly had a heart attack!

This is my oldest quarter, and only my second seated coin in seven years. My other is a slick dime, and I have been hoping for a nicer example.

Finding Seated on the Canadian prairie is a real challenge so I am thrilled with this coin!

Congrats on a tough dig anywhere. Seems to be more US silver in Canada then Canadian silver in US. I sure cant find any

Thanks toasted. If you notice the trees in the one pic, the road is alongside those trees. The other side of that road is the USA, so she didn't travel far haha. That's why I get a pretty even mix.

Nice work buddy, any seated is a tough target to dig... but a quarter is nuts. Congrats

Thanks Jon. I guess it's these kind of days that keep us digging, even when it's been a while since something good came out.

Killer find J! Congrats, I bet you weren't expecting that one!

The other day I got a nice silver signal and decided to film it. Turned out to be a 1961 silver quarter.

Today it crossed my mind to film this dig, but it wasn't that deep so I didn't bother. Damn it!

Thanks, and yes I did not expect it at all!

Awesome coin man! Seated has eluded me somehow. I'd be thrilled with a find like that. Great hunt.
