Silver from the school!! It's my oldest coin find!!!

Went back to the Elementary school where I found some Mercs, Wheats and a Rosie... Got lucky and found some more silver, a 1905 Barber dime!!!! Its was only down about 3".. I think it was shallow because it was on a slight hill which was really rocky.. It's pretty banged up, but I still love it.. Also added a picture of a wheat I found the other night..

Congrats on your oldest! Your closing in on the 1800's, only a matter of time.

Good luck! HH
