IMG_20151122_191410732.jpg I met up with Carolina Tom yesterday morning and went to an old town near to do a Guaranteed Silver hunt. Tom had a new good luck token he was given by Tylerbdad that I held for a minute,glad I did because a little bit of his lucky charm rubbed off on me. After watching Tom dig three mercs I decided it was time to move to another spot. We went to the place Tom dug a walker a while back and threw at me laughing. After a while he was ready to go because he had three silvers for the day already. A few minutes later I had a choppy signal and it was to be my first barber dime and 1800s to boot. 2 firsts for me. woo hoo. I'm also posting last weekends finds hunting with Tom, Smittyman, and Kurt Steuben.

Great Find Todd. Welcome to the 1800's club. I bet CT doesn't let anybody else hold that Lucky Token cause that kicked those 3 dimes butt.:notworthy:

Yep, I have to say that nice Barber trumps Tom's rough silvers:tongue3:
Tom might let you hold the good luck token but I bet it costs you lunch or something.

Od I've got a good luck Token of my own. Good friends to hunt with and this beautiful Carolina weather were having right now. Don't let Tom know anything about his good luck Token.

Awesome job on the first Barber dime, and it's so much sweeter when it's 1800's!!!

In bet you two are a hoot to hunt with. Looks like you held your own. Congrats on pulling all those keepers in the past 2 hunts. I'd love to average 2.5 silvers per hunt.

I hear you. I'm north of the border, so when I find a barber up here I'm REALLY happy.

The first one is by far the hardest to find, hopefully more will turn up for you soon!
