1918 / 7 S Standing Liberty Quarter, 1905 Indian cent,old button

 I got out to one of my hunting spots today and pounded it for 8 hrs.
I got the 1905 Indian Head Cent first and then the 1918-s Standing Liberty Quarter
 that was on my wish list. Yes it's my first Standing Liberty and not to bad if I may say
so myself.
I also got a big button and some other things.

   
      Not too stinking shabby !!!!     Argentium.

Nice finds Rodger! Is your arm tired tonight?

Great Job RD...Do you use both arms or just one? That's some serious swinging...Congrats and HH

Thanks Argentium.

Thanks arrowhead883. My arm feels OK.

8 hours of swing the detector. Bet momma was mad at you. My momma told me I had to stay home today and take care of the kid and cook for everyone that was coming over. You sure sleep well tonight....Matt

Ack!

Thanks plehbah. Your quick .

Thanks wyattrr. I use the right arm most of the time and when it gets tired I switch for a few minutes than back.

Just excellent.  I want to dig one.

Thanks mlayers. She had to work and I got to play.

Check your standing liberty very closely an post a very close pic of the date I think you might not just have just a 1918 S  It's 1918 over 7 (meaning they stamped the 8 over the 7 froma 1917 SLQ incase you didn't know what that meant) If so that is a 1800.00 + Quarter!!!!!!!!! (1800.00 is the very least it's worth if it is a 8over7)

I agree with creeper71, had the same thought when I first saw your pics. Can you post a clearer picture.
Even in that photo it seems to be an 8 over 7 variety. Please try to give us a better look. Being an SLQ enthusiest I'd crap myself if I saw that in a plug!.Great find.

I LOVE THOSE STANDING LIBERTY QUARTERS !!!!!!

congrats on those sweet finds !!!

rd brough the s l over and we looked at it under my mic and it sure looks like 8 over 7.  i got some close ups but i cant get them out of one program into the other.....i will keep trying......mpfish

Nice finds. 

I'm not a expert by any means but I am fairly sure it is a 8 over 7

Yea, it looks like a 8 over an 7!!!! Try to post a better pix!!!

Great looking finds!

Great finds.  If that in fact (which I believe it is) is an 18/7 that is surely a banner find!

[God bless our veterans! Thank you for your sacrifices!]

Great SLQ!!!  Lots of detail and same on the Indian!!! 

8 over 7 or not it is still a great Find. That series of quarters are hard to find with a good date on them as it was the highest point of the coin I believe.

Very cool...I recently found one of those brass folding rulers as well...Great digs!
Baggins

real nice finds they look in good shape

Beautiful finds Rodger. Even the indian cleaned up well. Still waiting for my first standing liberty, Hopefully its right around the corner. Congrats.

(1800.00 is the very least it's worth if it is a 8over7) Thanks creeper71. I'm pretty sure it is a 8 over a 7. It might take a day or two to get some decent pictures.

Nice finds. 

Thanks Trond. It may be more than a nice find. We will see.

I'm not a expert by any means but I am fairly sure it is a 8 over 7

Thanks creeper71. I'm almost sure it is also.

SaWeeeeeeeet...........

How's this......NGE

How's this......NGE

Thank you for the try,but I still can't blow it up without the date getting blurry

When I blew it up full page it was pixelated but when I did double size I could see a 7.....NGE  Microsoft picture and fax viewer.

Very nice finds!

Standing Liberty Quarter is 1918 over 1917. What do you think?

if need be we can give them more views  now that we have this thing figure out....mpfish

Thanks MPFISH. You were a big help.

looks like a 7 to me, notice how bottom loop of 8 looks like it has a slash through it.....NGE

Thanks nowgittingeverything.I got to looking at it after creeper71 mentioned 1918 /7 and took it to MPFISH to magnify it and we both agreed it is 1918 over 1917.

Congrats!!!! Awesome finds, love the SLQ!!!

Very nice. If this is a 1918/7-s, why is it not on the banner yet. I have looked at the pics and it looks like the real thing. I vote banner. 
Randy

No doubt it is a 8/7 nice find !!

Keep @ it and HH!!

Congrats!!!! Awesome finds, love the SLQ!!!

Thanks Finman.

Rodger,
I have a 1993 redbook that shows the overdate. I'm 99% sure that you have the 1918/7-s.
I would show it to a local dealer first and then probably send it in for verification.
You have another banner find there!
That one could be more valuable than one of the 20 dollar St. Gaudens gold coins you found a few weeks ago.
Like I said about the two gold coins: "how are you going to top that "?
Looks like you did!

Nice Indian, Walker and the other stuff ain't too bad either!  Have a good day!

Yea, it looks like a 8 over an 7!!!! Try to post a better pix!!!

Thanks bk. I never thought of it toping the gold coins and you could be right about that.

          URS-9   Is the Universal Rarity Scale.   126 - 250  known according to this book.

  VERY NICE FIND !!

Very nice, the first SLQ I found was a 1918s with no over 7.  Congrats on a great find.
JDD

Looks like a pretty authentic overdate to me. Congrats on the nice quarter! 8 hours is a long time but that sure made it worth it.

Sounds like this could be a good one!


From the photos, it looks like you polished the coin with something?   

Sweet! I noticed the 8/7 right away. I think it's the real deal!! Congrats!

Ray

I voted banner, when I 1st saw the small pix earlier in the day that's what I thought it was but now with the closeup pix I am sure its a 7/8!!!! Congrats on another soon to be banner!!!!

Congrats on an awesome coin and making the banner once again!  just awesome! keep it up! best of luck and HH

Holy smokes RD!!!! 
When you find an SLQ, you do it right!
Congrats on your BANNER find. 
-MM-

Congrats RD on a Awesome find.

Congrats to Creeper 71 to pointing out the detail of the rarity of this coin.

If it wasn't from Detecting sites like this and the Great people on them,We would have alot of rare coins and relics hid back somewhere once again and the Rarity and History that awaits to be shown would probably never be known.

I've had a few marathon days like that lately but not with the same results. I look at it this way...if I can work 8 hours I can play 8 hours occasionally.

Thanks BuckleBoy. The only thing I did to the coin was soap and water between my fingers
and I still can see a little dirt on the coin.

Sweet! I noticed the 8/7 right away. I think it's the real deal!! Congrats!
