Texas pathfinder guarding the silver...

[txpathfinder]

Closing in on my first full year detecting, here's a peek at my silver take. The 40% silver half you see in the bag was a bank find, not a dig. Every thing else was dug this year. I have yet to find big silver in the ground but last week while md'ing with a buddy I found my first standing liberty quarter about 4 inches down in an empty house lot. Although the quarter was dateless, it still gave me a big thrill! (I think the flying eagle reverse is a beautiful design.)
The lead toy soldier was dug between curb and grass and the Delta Air Cargo belt buckle is also a recent dig from a vacant house lot.

Nice quarter! I agree, I think the SLQ was one of the most attractive coins ever minted.

Thanks, I was also impressed with the amount of original paint on this fightin' man.
