Sweet Quarter

mlw67 · Jul 27, 2006

Here is a nice old quarter I dug up from a sidewalk strip in southeast Portland awhile back.

I originally got the signal but couldn't find the target, so I left it there--then I ended up going back a few days later and dug this up from about 7" to 8" down. I'm glad I went back!

Yep that's one beautiful coin right there! Congratulations

I dug a hole one time for about a half hour and couldn't locate the target. Kept thinking about it all night long and went back the next day and dug for about 15 more minutes and discovered a beautiful piece of aluminum can. Oh the joy and excitement of such a shiny piece of aluminum! ::)

LOL

A coin ring? I never thought of that. I don't wear rings or jewelry, but maybe I could just paste it on my forehead like a third-eye. LOL At least people would see it.

Thanks for the great comments and compliments and kudos, everyone!
