Give Her A Standing Ovation!

Yes thats what I feel like doing for the lovely lady I found today. For I had not found a silver quarter until today. Diane and I decided to go out to an old school yard near us the same one Doug found the 25 S Merc the other day. My first target was sort of bouncy there was a good target surrounded by junk but by following a tip Nick gave me by doing quarter turns around the spot I was able to get readings that made me want to dig it. It is a early Standing Liberty Quarter, it has no date but because of the lack of stars underneath the Eagle and the beadwork over her head I know she is a 1917 Type 1 MacNeil's Liberty Standing Design. My first silver quarter and a dandy one to find.

Boy that is pretty!! :clapping: :clapping: You can almost make out the date on it. Think big though...it could be a 1916 :drool: :drool: Nice looking coin for sure :happydance01:
 
Congrats Bell-Two on a fantastic first quarter. :clapping:

The SLQ has eluded me up to this point... but this year I'm going to find her for sure. :yes:

In my opinion, that is one of our nicer design coins.
 
Great score on the old SLQ Bell-Two thumbsup01 my very first SLQ was a 1917 series 1, that's cool how you can I.D. the early ones like that.
 
Nice Standing Liberty :happydance01:,I was looking at it blown up it looks like it is a 1914 to me,just a thought...My first Silver was an 1888 Morgan Silver Dollar@10,That was a good day indeed :beerbuddy:
