Morgan Silver Dollar, Walker, other good Montana finds!

LovestheShiny! · Nov 29, 2020

While I did not find these, I did get some email pics from a buddy (uses Nox 800) that did a bit of detecting in a Central Montana town over the last couple of days. He made some great finds, so thought I'd post some pics of what he recovered.

The Barber Quarter was actually about 1" into the Concrete on a front sidewalk and had to be chipped out, most of these coins came out of curb strips, and the Silver Dollar was along a sidewalk and only a few inches down. Some very nice finds, enjoy!

Thanks metaladdict, I think you are right, looks pretty nice but with some wear, so not a super old drop. Found with the Merc Dimes so probably is that 1930's-40's time frame on the Big Shiny.

Good show ! Although you didn't find them, and you're posting on behalf of a friend, tell him "Thanx for taking us along". Great eye-candy. It's not every day that a Morgan pops up !

How does one replace their plug after chipping a hole in someone’s sidewalk?

Hah! That is a good one! Maybe after a run to the hardware store to get some quick setting concrete! Actually, in this case, my friend said that coin was along the side of the sidewalk about 2-3 down, so he attacked the target from the side not the top! :lol:

I’m going to add a small baggie full of quick setting hydraulic cement to my gear bag, just in case LOL.
