SLQ, Merc's. Buf & some Abe's

Finally I got out for a short bit to do some metal detecting. We've had such a lousy wet and cold Spring, worste I've seen in years! But today I hit up a spot in a old park that has recently had a large area of brush bull dozed and I ended up with silver! :icon_thumright:

First dig was a girl scouts pin, then the 1925-P Standing Liberty Quarter, then a 1918 wheatie. Just before finishing up as my batteries were just about done with I hit a iffy signal... ended up with a 1917-P & 1918-P merc's and a no date Buffalo Nickel laying there altogether for all these years. They're pretty worn. Also dug two more wheaties, 1937 & 1938.

I'll refresh my batteries this week and give it another shot mid-week :thumbsup:

Re: SLQ, Merc's. Buf & some Abe's

Nice finds there!!
That mercury is a 1916 instead of a 1918... I don't see the "D" mintmark on it, but still a good find.
Nice to have a date on the Standing Liberty Quarter... not many have the date on them when found from what I have seen.
