    Great finds, Dave! The SLQ almost looks like it had another coin next to it. It really saw a lot of circulation, didn't it? Always a thrill to find one!

    Nice bunch of marbles there too. I love finding them in the hole. I haven't found very many this year for some reason.

    Congrats on the nice finds!

    I did find 3 wheats in the same hole as the slq, so one of them might have been on it

    Dave, nice finds. Any SLQ is a welcome sight in a hole, worn or not. Marbles are always a plus, some being worth some money.

    on all your keepers.

    I like finding marbles as much as, if not more than silver. I played marbles a lot when we was kids.

    Nice finds Dave! Since I recently found my first Barber Quarter the SLQ has now moved up to #1 on my wish list. What is the coin directly under the Washington in the first pic? Can't tell.
