    My Best Coin Ever

    Went out on New Years Day with a couple of buddies at a 160 year old park. I found this Barber Dime @ 4" in frozen ground and on it's side. This is the best condition I have ever found a dug coin. Thanks for looking.

    Nice coin.  It must be the 1914's coin.  I found one early this past year, and it is one of the best coins that I've ever pulled out of the ground too.

    yep, there must be something about those 1914's. Mine and yours is still almost au condition, still a money coin.
