The Elusive Seated Quarter

[Don in South Jersey]

With the temps at 65 degrees, I took off of work to take advantage of the balmy weather. I had four new places to try out, & they did not pan out, so I decided to head out to a park which I frequent just to come back with something in my pocket. This park has been pounded by many a detector, & for the first 2 hours, all I had was a few dollars in clad coins. The last hour I start to head back towards the car taking really big sweeps. All of a sudden this sweet sound came on my detector, when I glanced at the screen, 13-46 was flashing at 8 inches deep. I knew I had deep silver, & I am kicking myself for not bringing my new video camera. I did not know what is was until I got home, & I was happy to find out that I had my first seated quarter.

I didn't want it to affect the rest of my hunt as I wanted to take advantage of the little daylight remaining. It was very tempting to rub it.
