I saw a local park was being renovated. It used to have 4 ball parks and tot lot. Now it's all gone within days for a new planned park. This park was only 40 years old so I figured I could get lucky and hit some deep Rosies and Washingstons? I set the etrac up for dimes and above. I figured I would have to do some extreme cherry picking. To my surprise I was digging a lot of clad dimes and quarters at 6 inches deep. So I was recovering my targets fast with little care. Still making a flap though.. After all I had about 15 quarters and 20 clad dimes in my pouch in just about 1.5 hours of digging. So I get another quarter hit at 6 to 8 inches. I quickly dig down in the ground that's like concrete. I had to almost chip away at the soil. Then out of no where I flipped out a quarter. From 8 inches down it glowed as most silver does. I figured it was a Washington. I always say to myself every time I see silver " I hope I didn't scratch it!" So I pulled it from the hole. Well you can see what it was. You can also see that I scratched it too. I dug about 15 more targets before it got dark. I recovered each target like I was a Surgeon but no more silver. I'm waiting for a good rain so I can go back.
still a seated quarter is a very good find!
