Seated quarter, Cripple Creek bottle!

diggingthe1 · Jul 25, 2023

Well I waited for the workers to finish pulling back the old sidewalk up on the main part of town. They are just doing a little section. They had to deal with an old tunnel that went under the road. Found the 1876 seated quarter!!! Pretty cool to find in Colorado. Too worn to see a mint mark I think. The same year when Colorado became a state. I found a loop seal amber bottle a few days ago on a Birthday dig!!! Happy Hunting!!!

Well done on the silver, though the bottle is top shelf. Congrats

I've got one seated dime, 1883, down here and my oldest quarter is a well worn 1893 o Barber.
Grats on the old silver and the glass is amazing!

Thank you all for the posts!! I'm a bottle digger at heart and that one glows!! I'd rather find a good bottle any day than a coin. That is my first seated quarter!! Hard to come by!! I found this telephone token today yesterday!
