our first finds

[strike it rich]

these are our very first finds using an xj9 the 2p was at 8 inchs while the 25 cents was at 2 inchs what do you think. i no idea how the Usa coin ended up over here but very glad to have found it. considering the machine in question was one via ebay we are very happy

Can't beat a silver quarter across the pond! Big congrats on those first finds. We find international coins here in the US also. My luck has found me only canadian pennies so far.

Well I guess your a UK newbie. Welcome to the best forum on the web.

Took me years to find my first US coin. Not that I was looking

Happy hunting & keep posting & reading the site to gather knowledge.

If you need advice, just ask?

Even if you don't ask, your get it anyway - "Try anywhere once".....but once might not be enough!

Welcome to Tnet and great find on the silver quarter...Oddly enough I have never found a silver quarter here in the states, so you have me beat on that one!
Happy hunting

Great finds!...

I would consider myself extremely lucky if I hit a silver Washington at 2" in Southern California at any park or school. The 1-4" layer has been hammered for silver in many areas. I believe the only frontiers remaining are new demos and private yards.

The most shallow silver coin I managed in So. Cal was over 4" deep and that was at a recently plowed demo.
