Finally, I can scratch this off my wish list. ;D
Up till now, the only seated coins I've found were dimes.
I came close last year, with 1892, 93, and 94 Barber Quarters, but still no Seated Quarters till now.
I got out yesterday and today for about 2 hours each day.
I found the Quarter (1877-S), and the no-date buff today. The Quarter was VERY deep, about 10 inches.
When I first saw it at the bottom of the hole, I thought it was an SLQ, till I got a good look.
I found the 37 Merc, the 37 Buffalo, and an EXTREMELY damaged 1866 Injun yesterday.
The Merc was very deep too. At least 8 inches.
The Injun and Buffs sounded like total crap, but it's an old site, so I figure it's worth it to dig anything that's mid-tone or better, and repeatable, especially if it's deep.
Anyway, the Quarter's pretty worn, especially the back.
But it made my day. ;D
Thanks for looking.

Very nice and congratulations for scratching another one off of your list.
 

All of mine, which are very, very few, have either been defaced, or fire damaged. Yours is one pretty little girl. Kudos!
