My first SLQ

[giant056]

I found it in early 2005 soon after I bought my MXT, I was using the stock coil and could just barely hear the signal but I was getting a quarter hit on it quite often so I had to dig it. It was no less than 10 inches down, I'll never forget that day cause I'd been hunting for one of them since I started back in 89 and had never found one. I found it in a park here in town that since has been excavated and also found other nice first finds.

Thanks for all the great replies everyone, I've found six more since I found my first, it must be it just took the one to break the ice on finding the SLQ I wish that was the case with the seated half, I'm still on my first with that one however it did come from the same park as my first SLQ.
