Not pretty, but 1st GW silver. Finally.

[Mr Ripley]

Hi all,

I have been detecting and digging for ten years now. I have found large cents, half dimes, barbers, mercs, wheats and Indian heads. I have always wondered why I had not found any walkers, and no silver Washington quarter. Pulled this one out of my back yard today.

Now for those Walkers.

 

[WHADIFIND]

BINGO! WTG!

 

[deershed]

Nothing wrong with that quarter...

Nice silver! Looks like old George was in a bar fight last night - black eye and everything

It doesn't really matter how long we have been detecting. It seems everyone has at least one coin that has eluded them. I have seen people here say they have been detecting for 15-20 years and never found a Buffalo nickle. I ran into a guy proudly showing off his CTX3030 here in NePa and said he had been detecting since 1995 and had yet to find a LC. He seemed hesitant to believe I could not say the same in only 2 years, lol. I have never found a holed coin of any type. Wtg!

Because you aspire to be like me when you get all growed up lol

Thank you all very much for the kind comments.

I am expecting a new coil next week, maybe I can knock walkers out too.

Congrats on your first washington quarter. It's always nice to get one on the list crossed off.

 

[creade]

Nice digs.

I had been detecting for 20 yrs. at the time. I have found Morgans, Walkers, Barbers, Seateds, Spanish 1/2 Reale, & you get the point. Up until that time I had never dug a Barber Quarter. That was my elusive coin all that time. We used to joke about it at the club I belong to. Well, 4 years ago I finally found my first one & she was in great shape. Guess what ? I haven't found one since !! Your Quarter is a very nice coin. Enjoy it !!
