  • While metal detecting with my Minelab Equinox 800 metal detector I found this old coin! This is an 1854 Seated Quarter with Arrows! It rang up as about a 31 on this metal detector. I was running 5 kHz low recovery speed trying to pull large deep silver coins like this. This is an old coin in beautiful condition, I was super excited to find it! I use the stock coil, and 6" sniper coil, and the 15" coil for the Equinox 800 when I metal detect. I love treasure hunting for stuff like this.

I thought they were washers but they were heavier decided to clean them with electrolysis good thing I did. I found a seated 1865 quarter 100 ft away that came out shiny? So make sure it's a washer before you throw it away.
