    Fairgrounds - Chock full of quarters - Silver & wheaties

    Went back to the fairgrounds this afternoon. Plenty of quarters to go around.. seem like every step I took I was digging a quarter.
    I pulled 8.94 in clad, $7 of which was in clad quarters. However, I did manage to pull 4 wheaties and 2 silver quarters - 1953 Washington, and a SLQ which the date is worn off.
    I just need 4 more silver coins to make my goal of 50 silver coins for the year.
