4 silvers, 2 wheats, 2 tokens....SUPER DAY!

[Goes4ever]

Was hunting at a private yard and man was it a good one! Got silver wheats, tokens and even a silver ring!
The 1941 merc was from a park hunt yesterday, did not find any wheats and very little clad, ready to quit for the day and was swinging on the way to the car, not 5 feet from the car I got a decent signal about 5" down and out popped the merc, saved the day!

Today I went to a private yard and found the two wheats, 1942 Merc dime, sterling ring, 2 amusement tokens, and the one silver quarter that is so worn I cannot even get a date from it, I am thinking it is an old Canadian quarter??? Can anyone ID it from the little details that are left on it?
That makes 45 silver coins for the year, and ring #13.

Another great day for you! Congratulations. The old Canadian Quarter is the King George V series, minted in three series, from 1911 - 1936. It is tough to tell which series your's is from. But it does bear a striking resemblance to the 1911 version. I suppose an assayist could tell if it were a 1911 by the silver content?????

DATE: 1910 to 1919
COMPOSITION: .925 Silver, .075 Copper
WEIGHT: 5.83 grams
DIAMETER: 23.62 mm

DATE: 1920 to 1952
COMPOSITION: .800 Silver, .200 Copper
WEIGHT: 5.83 grams

Regardless, it's always great to dig some silver. Again, congrats on another great hunt. HH Randy

thank you for the ID Randy! This coin was only about 2-3" deep so I suspect it was in circulation way past the 1930's...lol

Yep, you sure did have a super day.

I've found a few Canadian large cents in the past, but I've never found any Canadian silver. I guess I'm going to have to put that one on my " want list "
