After getting complacent in digging dozens of memorials among thousands of targets, this lady was a surprise in the hole. Tough digging in a dry, weedy, trashy-a$$ empty lot...oops, nice scar across your face, my bad. I feel deflated...get it? deflated:laughing7:

I agree with your title. You do suck. Don't let all the niceties here go to your head. :laughing7:

You don't even know me, yet you know me so well.
 

Still it's a nice one, digging silver in Jan is great.
 

nice find,Frustration with trash can make a man dig carelessly,at least you found it.Nice one!
 

Been there, done that. My first Walker I dug up with a modified screwdriver, and plunged the hell out of the middle of it. Haven't scarred a coin since. Live & learn. That'll take the air right out of your balls when you do that!
 

I've posted this before, but here's my slasher pic. Your Quarter is still a beauty. Carl

Great find. So that scratch just gives it some extra character is all. Thanks for sharing.

My heart skipped a beat, then it broke...I am so sorry for your loss...fills a spot in your book though?
 

What a nice find.....why can't they make a coin like this nowadays ?? course it won't be silver like the beauty you found but the design is so cool ...
 

...oops, nice scar across your face, my bad. I feel deflated...

Oh yea, that scar aint nothing, let me show you the one I got from a shark bite....uh or was it a grizzly?...:laughing7:

seriously though, that's a nice coin, scar or no scar.
 

Don't be so hard on yourself, at least you found an awesome coin. I stabbed my 1922 Peace Dollar, but I still love her!
 

Pretty bad when you say you suck and hardly anybody agrees with you.

I think everyone agrees...they are like, yea you do
 

Scarface Al's Grandmother ?
 

Scarred or not, still a great coin!
 

We all know the feeling of pulling that find that is bright silver...just laying there for decades only to discover....by some unknown force ...a nick, scratch mysteriously glares back at us.....still great to get that silver though.
 

I'd take that blemish any old day on a pretty silver coin. I feel bad for you though,it happens to us all.
 

Hey certain things can be over looked! You found it! Congrats!

.....I won't tell you what I did to my first Barber dime!
 

I think everyone agrees...they are like, yea you do
I kick myself in the a.ss every time I scar anything.i have a bad habit of it too!But i guess it just goes with the territory sometimes.Still a very nice coin.All you did was give her a little kiss on the cheek.Not like you socked it to her or nothin:3some:

I have never scratched a memorial cent!:BangHead:
 

Very nice find! A little plastic (metal) surgery will fix her right up. Congratulations on the nice silver!
