Silver Quarter and a wheat.

[treblehunter]

Was working on the treasure skiff, got hot and decided to hit the lake, hunted a new area of same lake for about an hour and found allot of trash, did manage to pull a 1957 Washington Quarter and a 1926 wheatie, (key date, worth about 35 cents)

Might not be a Draped Bust, but I like both of these coins!
Enjoy the pix, HH & GL

Well done. Atleast you got silver. I have yet to find silver or anything for that fact. And I have found over 300 coins...all clad, one wheatie.

Nice finds! Thanks for sharing...

I love those silver quarters. Congrats.

Nothing wrong with that old Wheatie either. That's a 1926 and that's an old coin.

Colonial pennies?

What will you do this winter, Treb? Glad you're having fun.

Funny thing is, I have found an 1805 large cent, an 1838 large cent, a 1723 Wood's Hibernia, a dateless King George II Half cent (1727-1760), and made it in to the 1600's club with a 1600's French Liard, but not one silver quarter, and only one silver dime while metal detecting (a 1904 barber dime), and only one Indian Head Cent (an old one, 1864).

Congrats on the silver quarter, and the wheatie!

That's interesting, that has to be from "location" I'm on my phone, can't see what part of the country you are from. I'm having a good silver quarter year, off the top of my head, I can think of six Washington quarters.

Your a pistol, I just commented on Mr Helton s thread couple days ago that I'm going to hate this winter. Maybe I'll head south with the birds

Wait till I get that boat in the water!

[frogginfish]

Yes, forever to be known as the Treasure Skiff. It will become a very intricate part of my always changing strategy.

If you can find clad, you can find silver. Here is the silver equation, it is simple:

Old areas = Old Coins

If you don't find silver in the areas of old coins, find more old areas and the silver will eventually come. Your chances will increase.

I usually don't search unless a place looks to be 1940s or older. If you start dating and looking at houses you will eventually be able to pick out the really old houses (20s' or older) from the pseudo old looking houses.

Congrats on the '57 Washington buddy, that's a nice find right there!

If every coin came out a super old antique silver, it would just get boring and the silver prices would plummet.

Appreciate every one! They are all lil treasures!
