    Finally got some barbers north of I-80!

    After finding my only 2 barbers down south with Soupie I finally got my second two above the I-80 barber boundry. First was the BBQ which was about 4". I was sure it was clad and super surprised when I saw the eagle on back! Then was the Roosie, and then the Barber dime! Two barbers on one hunt!? Not sure what I did to get so lucky but I'll take it. Spent the next three hours trying to get a merc so I could complete a trifecta but only got the two indians and a wheatie spill. Also random was the English penny. Not old but still cool to me.

    Just noticed the bbq is somewhat special. 1901O is worth $40 in good condition.

    HH!

    Congrats on some sweet silver and nice IH's. Dig it all...deep or shallow....you don't know how many people pass up those shallow signals thinking it's clad or crap.

    Nice job north of I 80

    The 1901 O I found several years ago was the only metal detecting coin that I have sold. I regret doing it.
    I had to buy a replacement coin of lesser value and grade.
