    Seems to have some weight to it.

    Nice "O" Barber!
    Sure is cool pulling out silver over a hundred years old!

    My first coin was a 1904 O Barber dime! Less than 15 minutes into my first hunt ever! Thought "Gee this isn't so tough!"
    Took two more years before I found my next old silver!

    Congrats again!

    Good Luck,
    Mark
