Great job on pulling the barber half and dime out of a park! That's awesome. I can't wait till the day I find my 1st half. Also, I second the SKOL!

Congrats on your first Barber half- that's awesome that you checked that one off the list! Any MM on the reverse? An "S" makes it pretty valuable...

Excellent work in Minnesota!!!

I'm down here in Rochester striving for the same booty.

Such a heart-pounder when that big silver comes out of the ground.

Aren't Barber coins just SO cool look'n??

Keep 'em coming!
