Close but no cigar

This is a coin I dug a few years ago, and still own, it was dug at our famous Stanley Park in Vancouver.
It is a 1918 s quarter dollar, now if you look up this coin in a coin catalogue, you know why my heart almost stopped when dug it.

In 1918 this coin had a variety where another year was minted over an existing year,called 1918/7 s, have looked but does not appears it's this variety, if was...they can be worth over 100 thousand us dollars. Well thanks for looking, love this hobby. oj/bc

Silver is getting more difficult to find, and especially American silver where you live. I keep thinking that you once made mention of finding several old coins at that park over the years. What metal detector were you using? Kelley (Texas)

yes have found quite a few coins there, but seems were banned from the park, someone dug up an underground pipe, thanks for reading. hh oj

Not sure but was told by club members that there was a ban, but have heard of people still detecting... someone must have made a mess is what I heard, I guess the Forrest would be ok, but a lot of loonies there sometimes hh
