1902 barber quarter found while metal detecting in Connecticut.

Sand scoops for metal detecting are a little pricey for a once a year beach trip. Here is an attempt to create one from the cone of an old ricer. The ricer was $5 at a local second-hand store.

 

I drilled 3/8 in. holes in at regular intervals and then widened them to about 1/2 with a file. This is large enough for wet sand, but small enough to keep a dime in.

I dragged out my metal detector that I haven't used in the past 12 years. I checked and the batteries still read like new so I dusted it off and headed outside. This is my first silver coin in years and it only took me 20 minutes to find it. I was so excited. I just love the artwork on older coins.

Constantinopolis Commemorative, struck for Constantine I and his sons.
