    Buff and painted quarter

    After i found the SLQ at the little park in town i hit it again the next day. My best finds were a 1937 and 38 wheatie. I went back today and made two passes from front to back and found exactly 0 coins.
    So i headed over to the old iceskating park to see if i could salvage the day. I only found $1.02 but part of that was a 1928-D buffalo and a painted collector quarter.
    I am still amazed at how many nickles the E-Trac finds. Sometimes they number more than the pennies.

    Here's pic..........

    Well....I'd say you salvaged the day! thumbsup01
    Any hunt that produces a Buff is a good one if you ask me!
