Silver Opportunity

Today I was waiting to pick up my vehicle from the dealer, so rather than hang around I headed to a park not far from the dealership. Better to go detecting than sit in a stuffy show room watching TV and eating donuts. :cheesysmile: While at the park I picked up two silver quarters, a 1942 Washington and a 1920 Standing Liberty. She is a bit tarnished, but still pretty. :smitten:

The one to the right is a button. :yes: The pendants are small. The one next to the button is sterling silver.
 
You have a one track mind :lol: detecting :thumbsup01: But a real nice way to spend the time. I hate dealerships and the 4 hour waits :rolleyes: Nice SLQ and a real nice old button. :shocked04: Probably colonial or close to it if it's a one piece.

I can't help it.:lol: The four hour wait was well invested. :cheesysmile: Yeah, the button is one piece. :yes: The site could very likely yield some older silver too. :drool:
 
I can't get over how black your silver comes out up there..wow. That SLQ will clean up really nice, there's lots of good detail on it! Congrats!
 
Nice... way to squeak a little more detecting time in.

Do you have a running total on silver face value? At $21 an oz., you must have a small fortune you have recovered from the ground.

Congrats.
 
I swear, you and those religous metals, you could open your own store and sell them you have such an inventory!
Nice finds and great way to be productive.
 
Ooooh I like the ship pendant! :thumbsup01:

Congrats on that pretty SLQ Please show us how she looks after cleaning if you think about it! Aluminum foil and baking soda?
 
Thanks for the comments everyone!

I do have a running total. The current total face value of this year's silver coins is $107 :yes:

I'm not sure I'm going to make it, but it will be fun trying. :lol: Thanks, Dave!

I am thinking of cleaning the SLQ before placing her in a 2X2. I'll post a photo when I do. :yes:
