I decided to check out some woods near my work because it was easy digging compared to what I've been dealing with elsewhere with the frozen ground. I started getting some older penny's which was a good sign and then a 1936 penny which was a real good sign. I slowed down and then got a perfect quarter hit. I was psyched when I saw a standing liberty quarter pop out. The date is real hard to see but in person I can just make out 1923. To bad those older dug raised date ones are almost always worn down. I also ended up with a 1965 silver Canadian dime before I left. For this time of year and conditions I'm very happy with two silvers in one short hunt. Looks like I'll be spending a bit more time in those woods after work more often. Thanks for looking! [emoji2]

Congrats on a very nice coin. I like hunting out in the woods.
 
Nice type 2. 1917-1923. Cheers
 
Thanks. I wish the date was better to see but I 99.9% sure it's the 1923! [emoji2]

Sometimes what you can see in person doesn't show up in a pic. Glad you got a date. Nice find again!
 
Nice find in the woods! :occasion14:

I would check that area very carefully, perhaps you stumbled on an old park, play or picnic area! :dontknow:
 
Congrats on the great winter finds!! Love the SLQ!
