I don't know if i have ever detected in Jan in Pa. This January has been good to me. Friday i went out and got a 1929 wheat and some clad and today i got a 1899 O Barber Quarter and more Clad. The Barber Quarter is a first for me.. I was pumped up. Thanks for looking

Awesome quarter! I'm sure you were stoked when you popped this beauty out. Let's hope the 40's and 50's weather stays for a bit longer. I can't imagine digging in Feb...

Congrats on digging a first. :occasion14:It always gets me stoked when I can check one off the ole bucket list. :headbang:

It's gonna be in the 50's this weekend so I may try to hunt a permission house built in the early 1950's. The owner want to swing my F2 and hunt with me when I am there.

Congrats on your first Barber quarter, I'm sure it won't be your last.

I got the Barber Triple Crown last year - dime, quarter, and half dollar. I'm sure that was the first time I ever did that.
