Hello everyone,

I have been working an old farm site, home built around 1850 or so. Found a bunch of wheaties, a 1894 Indianhead and a 1951 Rosie. Hit a jumpy quarter signal on the Whites 6000 and pinpointed. Found a square nail in the hole and pinpointed again. Quarter signal just off the side of my original plug and bam a silver edge pops out at me.

I flipped it over and a beautiful 1924 Standing Liberty Quarter in great condition. No mint mark but a keeper none the less. Another item off the metal detecting bucket list and great addition to the collection.

I broke my knife shortly after finding the SLQ but I didn't mind at all, lol.

It has been an amazing first year of metal detecting and it is amazing how much I learn each time out.

Keep on lookin,

Steven

Great Steve, nice condition. Silver quarters have eluded me. I hope I find one that nice.

Nice going Steve. My first silver coin find was a SLQ, but unfortunately the date was completely worn off. Yours is a real beauty for such an early date.
