Seated Quarter

Yesterday I set out for what I thought was a pretty well hidden spot, deep into the woods. Upon arrival I discovered the cellar and the surrounding area was completely trashed :disgusted:. I hunted the area for around 30 minutes and after not uncovering a signal good target, I decided to hike back.

I decided to swing on my way back to the car, and after a while I came across a solid high tone with my MXT Pro. I pulled out a disk, and at first I thought it was a modern Washington quarter. I rubbed off some dirt and exposed Seated Liberty! An 1857 Seated Quarter, my first seated quarter! :)

...and a real looker too! Man o man, that's a nice coin!! Big congrats Sam! You are having a hot streak, keep it up!
 
Beautiful coin Sam , was it just a random find in the woods or on or near an old road ??
 
Grats on the seated. Not many come in that denomination so you are lucky. I have been increasingly checking the old roads more since a few finds have been coming up lately from the roads. Drops in the roads happen, just harder to find I guess..
 
That Seated Quarter is truly a thing of beauty! Wow, what a wonderful find! :loveit:

It boggles the mind to think about all of the old coins that are still out there just waiting to be found.

:perfect10:
