Found someone's large 1902 silver lucky piece in the wood chips!!

Had about 3 hours so I thought I would hit a couple of wood chip spots that I have not been too for a while. At the last area, I started finding a lot of quarters and dimes and such, when I thought I had another quarter, but it turned out to be a Monroe dollar coin to my surprise! On the way around the back of the swings, I got another quarter reading and to my surprise again, it was another Monroe dollar coin! :o Went over the spot again and got the same reading, WOW I thought, it's going to be a third dollar coin. I was thrilled and very happy to see a 1902 Barber quarter pop out, that made my day. I also found a (10$ Diez pesos) coin. I wounder if the center of the coin is silver? Well anyway, I came away with about $6 in change total. From there I headed to my old pounded park for a short hunt and came up with a 1910 penny. I hope you had or will have a great day also! thanks for looking.

Interesting counterstamp on that Barber. Maybe someone on the forum knows the origin?
