Got off work a bit early and headed out to the park that has been my breakthrough in finding older coins and silver. Pulled two silver coins out pretty quick plus a wheatie. Put the silver away to clean up at home. Saw that the one was a Merc but couldn't tell what the quarter was... IMG_3749.webp

Was pretty excited to get them home to clean them off and see what my first silver quarter was going to be...

It's very worn but it looks like a 1909 Barber along with the 1941 Merc. Very exciting day and more proof that this park and I will be friends for a bit longer.

Thanks for looking...

Couldn't help but head back for a quick hour hunt after yesterday even though I'm getting to be sick as a dog. Wasn't disappointed...IMG_3754.webp
 
Great finds there, keep it up!
 
awesome! I haven't found a barber quarter in a couple years... gotta love 'em
 
Ahhhh good deal. I like a place that gives up a little every now and then. Some places become like old friends. Glad she is still producing for you.

Ive been hunting the same small park all summer i dig anything that rings above foil and it keep producing ...each time i think its hunted out i go back 2 more times and pull something else this week it was a 1905-0 dime ...keep swinging in there more good things will come
 
Good for you!
 
Nice barber and other coins
 
You have a good spot ...Glad to see you didn't wipe the dirt off of them as soon as you got them out of the hole... They display so much better without scratches. Keep hunting and posting!
 
That park is clearly a winner - if you are using the e-trac , you also have a winner ! looks like a win -win situation to me !!! Argentium.
 
Got back out there this morning for a few hours and found a couple more goodies...

1917 & 1942-D

I think I'm going to have to start removing lots of garbage in order to find many more and there is lots of surface garbage...

Thanks for looking!
