Finally!!! and I got a date

[diggin jimmy hoffa]

Got out Sunday for a few hours to detect Area Dirty-One.

We decided to give another section a go Sunday and it was hard going. The finds were far and few between as far as oldies go. In fact, even the clad took quite awhile to accumulate.

Finally, I decided to make my way to another portion of this parcel and got a good dime signal and was pleasantly surprised to see the Barber Dime laying in the hole. This is the first Barber Dime I have ever dug in the 7 years of detecting and I was beginning to think that no one had ever dropped one in Northern Indiana. Ok, so maybe this is the only one ever lost here

A few feet away I got a good quarter hit and seen the eagle on the reverse. When I flipped it over I could barely make out the date (no glasses on). After getting back to the truck and grabbing my specs. I was very pleased with how strong the date was on this one.

Thanks for looking and good hunting

Thanks Ryan,

The only other Barber Dime I ever seen pulled from the Hoosier dirt was that one you pulled the day we all went to the Kroc Center Hunt and you got yours what, a few feet away from me at the park?

It very well might be.

I looked it up in the Redbook (2007) and the value there looks good for a coin of this variety.

Thank for pointing it out
