So I was in a bit of a drought for a bit. Found a few mercs and a cool compact and a transit token.

Then it was a few weeks of nothing except clad and trash. Was a three week slump. And it sucked.

After that nonsense this last Sunday looked to be more of the same. I found a wheat in the first few hours and nothing else. My hunting partner DirtFishingDan found a Rosie. It was raining very hard as we were out during the bomb cyclone here. At the very last spot I found a bucket lister and my only second silver quarter besides the seeded hunt. Took over 8 hours Sunday but finally got my first SLQ.

This weekend we have a few spots that hopefully will be great. One grange hall from the 20’s some curbstrips and a old homesite
 
That is a beautiful find ! I'm surprised more aren't found , posted here.

I think quarters are just rare. At least for me. I have a barber and now a slq no others except from the seeded hunt. I have a seated half two barbers and a walker but only two quarters period.
 
Congrats on the Mercs and a very nice looking first SLQ. Still hoping to a dig one this year. The transit token is a cool save as well. Good luck, Mark
 
Great way to end a slump! That SLQ appears to have a lot of detail. I have found 3 so far, 2 dated, and one slick, but none with that kind of detail. Nice!
 
Nice finds PNW! I've dug those Bellingham Transit Co tokens when I used to live in Bellingham in a previous life. Also found a few "Whatcom Railway & Light Company" tokens from about 1912. I remember finding one in Cornwall Park there in B'ham.
