With the snow finally gone it was time to tune up the ol Ace 250, I pulled it out of the shed and turned it on with the coil resting on the ground. After I was sure the batteries were still good I was just playing around with the settings by my shed, not looking for anything but familiarizing myself (it had been 6 long months). 3 seconds after setting it to coin mode and about 1 foot from where I originally turned the machine on, I got a good quarter signal at 2". So here I am standing in my hard packed gravel driveway lamenting the idea of even digging 2" into the pack, I brushed away some of the loose gravel and lo and behold the was a '86 Washington. My wife was standing close and I said "look honey, a quarter. 1 minute into the season and this baby is already paying for itself." She rolled her eyes at me and went in the house
? No picture because I am sure you have all seen a clad '86 quarter, and beings it was just under the loose gravel by where I park my truck it's more likely that I was just reunited with the quarter. HH folks

Good Find though!
I know that look! She'll change her attitude when you bring home a nice big diamond ring! Unfortunately my wife said she is still waiting for that day!
