Re: My first seated quarter!
Sweet digs. I'd kill to find a seated quarter. The ruby thing might be a reflector from a bike or a sign... I've dug some similar items but I may be off target. Is there anything written on the back? Here's a pic of the ones I dug.
Congrats on the great digs!

Re: My first seated quarter!
Tana, WTG on the seated. I know how you feel about posting lately. It's been a while since I have found some nice coins. Congrats on all the merc's and I see your car collection is growing quite well.
Re: My first seated quarter!
Awesome seated quarter, Tana! :wow:
Such a wonderful coin! I'm still looking for my first seated quarter. I'm not holding my breath though, since I haven't even found a standing liberty with my E-Trac yet.
I have found those red glass things before too. I always assumed that they were some kind of old reflector, maybe for a bicycle. I'm not certain of that though.
So glad to see a post from you! I love all of your photos! thumbsup01
Re: My first seated quarter!
:wow: :perfect10:! Great Finds! And really good photo's! You have some great looking places to hunt! Congrats! Tell your team to leave you more silver next time! :groovy:

Congratulations Tana, and nice photos! :perfect10:
Re: My first seated quarter!
:wow: A seated quarter. Awesome! :perfect10: I agree about the reflector. I really like the old clock key, nice. Great pictures. Looks like a good time was had by all. Congrats thumbsup01
Re: My first seated quarter!

Re: My first seated quarter!
Congrats on the seated quarter. Those houses are beautiful. That little red thing could be a lens that goes over a light from a tractor letting you know that the ignition is turned on.
Re: My first seated quarter!
Thanks for the congrats everyone! I'm getting back into the swing of things lately...
literally! lol :cheesysmile:
Btw, the last place there in my pics above was built in 1790 and I'm very excited to be hunting there all day tomorrow. My 4 yr old and I went there for about an hour this afternoon and found 1880 IH in mighty fine condition... it was wedged on a root and rock and looks like as if it was dropped yesterday :shocked04:stretcher: I got a great signal for something large under some roots where the old mill and distillery was. I carefully dug a foot deep, diligently moving rocks - I have this feeling it is very special relic or perhaps a cache of gold coins lol I plan to dig it up tomorrow, will let you know... :cheesysmile:

Yes, I think it might be a reflector as it sure looks like the ones Z118 posted. Although pretty small, perhaps a bike reflector?
Or Rob's mention of tractor ignition light, although... the way the glass is cut it seems decorative. One of the things I like about detecting is learning about and/or the mystery of never knowing what something was actually used for lol

Thanks for sharing your pics! Yes those look just like mine... I guess you found all 3 of those near eachother? Yeah, maybe from a sign... I never thought about reflectors being on signs. To answer your question: No, there's nothing written on the back, just a 'snipped' out hole to let light in. I think Rob might have something on the tractor ignition light!

Thanks Jack! I heard that SEF coils don't do well in trashy areas but it did - in fact I used a program from the Book of Jack to find this quarter :yes: So, a sincere thanks to you! I do try high trash mode in old parks but don't seem to get near depth (4 maybe??) So I use it around trees and shelters where there could be less composition going on... and roots pushing up...

I think that could be it! With the hole kinda 'snipped' out from behind to let light in... leads me to believe it prob wasn't a jewelry piece. Thanks for the congrats :) I'm still flying high from finding the seated quarter!
Re: My first seated quarter!
WOW !!! Very cool stuff and way to go on the CC Seated Quarter . The pictures are great too . |:cheering: :beerbuddy:
